This is a symptomatic management plan. Since your condition is recurrent for >1 month, I strongly advise you to visit a dermatologist once to confirm whether it is eczema, fungal infection, or psoriasis or it could be viral

The symptoms you’re describing could be related to several conditions. One possibility is dyshidrotic eczema, which commonly affects the palms and soles and can present as small, itchy blisters that may later turn into brown patches as they heal. Another possibility might be hand, foot, and mouth disease, though this is less common in adults and usually resolves on its own. Certain infections or allergic reactions can also cause similar symptoms, so considering any recent exposures or changes in products like soaps or lotions might add useful context.
Since these bumps are painful and recurring, and given their persistence, it’s wise to seek an in-person evaluation with a healthcare provider. They can perform a physical examination, take a detailed history, and possibly conduct tests to determine the underlying cause. A dermatological consult might be especially worthwhile, as they can evaluate whether a skin biopsy or other tests would be needed.
In the meantime, try to keep those areas clean and dry. Non-prescription measures, such as applying hypoallergenic moisturizers or colloidal oatmeal baths, could provide some relief. Avoid scratching, as this can lead to infections or scarring. If symptoms worsen or you notice swelling or signs of infection like pus, redness spreading, or fever, see a medical professional sooner rather than later. This approach not only helps in managing symptoms but also reduces the risk of complications or mismanagement.
