Hopefully you recover soon Regards
1. Pompholyx eczema often worsens with sweat, detergents, stress, or allergy foods like spicy junk and excess dairy, so avoid these.
2. Keep hands clean and moisturized with gentle, fragrance free creams or coconut oil.
3. Follow an Indian diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, flax seeds, and drink enough water daily.
4. Limit tea, coffee, fried foods, and sugar as they can flare skin and arthritis.
5. If itching or blisters increase, consult a dermatologist for short course medicines like steroid creams or antihistamines.
Since you’re 17, arthritis may be juvenile idiopathic arthritis or autoimmune. The anti-inflammatory diet above will help both skin and joints. Omega-3 rich foods (flaxseed, chia, walnuts, fish if non-veg) reduce joint inflammation. Gentle yoga/physiotherapy for flexibility.
Moisturize hands multiple times/day, avoid harsh soaps/chemicals. Follow an Indian anti-inflammatory diet (greens, fruits, whole grains, nuts, turmeric). Avoid junk, excess sugar, processed wheat. Manage stress, hydration, and sleep. During severe eczema flare-ups → you may still need short-course topical steroid cream prescribed by a dermatologist.
