Hyperkeratotic eczema is characterized by the presence of confluent foci of hyperkeratosis located on the palms and / or soles of the feet. The lesions are most common on the hands and affect women during menopause.
Hyperkeratotic eczema – causes of occurrence
The etiology of this ailment remains unclear. There is a supposition that common inflammation is accompanied by a hereditary predisposition to keratinization disorders of the hands and feet.
Symptoms of hyperkeratotic eczema
The disease is manifested by eczema located mainly on the hands, and sometimes also on the soles. The surface of the hands and feet is covered with few, small, mildly inflamed shields. In places, thick yellowish calluses are formed. Deep cracks and fissures in the callous epidermis are very characteristic. Small bubbles may appear around the foci. The course of the disease is chronic and recurrent
How is hyperkeratotic eczema diagnosed?
The histopathological picture is dominated by significant hyperkeratosis and slight inflammation. Hyperkeratotic eczema should be differentiated from:
- irritations,
- dyshidrotic eczema,
- tinea,
- hypertrophic lichen planus.
Hand and foot hyperkeratotic eczema – treatment
The treatment uses topical ointments with the addition of keratolytic and exfoliating agents. It is also important to lubricate the skin.
