Pompholyx - 水疱症https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyshidrosis
水疱症 (Pompholyx) 是一種皮膚炎,特徵是手掌和腳底出現發癢的水泡。水泡大小通常為一至兩毫米,約三週內會自行癒合,但常常復發。通常不會出現明顯發紅。疾病反覆發作可能導致裂痕與皮膚增厚。

過敏原、身體或精神壓力、頻繁洗手或金屬接觸都會加重病情。診斷多依靠外觀與症狀。其他可能產生類似症狀的疾病包括膿皰型牛皮癬和疥瘡。

治療通常使用類固醇乳霜,第一或第二週可能需要使用高效能類固醇乳霜。抗組織胺可用於緩解搔癢。

治療 - 非處方藥
避免使用肥皂。因手掌與足底皮膚較厚,低效的非處方類固醇軟膏可能無效。服用非處方抗組織胺亦有幫助。

Dyshidrotic eczema(急性掌蹠濕疹)是成人常見的手部皮膚炎類型,約佔手部皮膚炎病例的 5‑20%。其特徵為手指與手掌側面出現充滿液體的小水泡,這是由皮膚表層腫脹所致。有時這些水泡會合併成較大的水泡,形似「木薯布丁」。在嚴重情況下,皮疹可能蔓延至整個手掌。診斷通常依據反覆出現的皮疹臨床觀察:水泡突然出現在手指上,並逐漸擴散至手掌。
Dyshidrotic eczema (DE) or acute palmoplantar eczema is a common cause of hand dermatitis in adults. It accounts for 5-20% of the causes of DE. It is a vesiculobullous disorder of the hands and soles. It is an intraepidermal spongiosis of the thick epidermis in which accumulation of edema causes the formation of small, tense, clear, fluid-filled vesicles on the lateral aspects of the fingers that can become large and form bullae. The vesicles can have a deep-seated appearance, which is referred to as “tapioca pudding.” In severe cases, lesions can extend to the palmar area and affect the entire palmar aspect of the hand. The diagnosis is mostly clinical and suggested by a recurrent rash of acute onset with vesicles and bullae located in the fingers extending to the palmar surfaces of the hands.

一名31歲男性因雙手手掌出現劇烈搔癢、線狀水泡,於4天前就診皮膚科。他最近曾接觸過一名患有疥瘡的人。該患者自幼有濕疹和氣喘病史,但成年後未出現任何症狀。經檢查與顯微鏡分析,發現水泡未見挖洞、蟎蟲或蟲卵的跡象。初步診斷為 pompholyx eczema,患者開始使用溫和的外用皮質類固醇。然而,患者於5天後回診,症狀惡化,出現嚴重的水皰皮疹。
A 31-year-old man presented to dermatology with a 4 day history of an intensely itchy, linear, vesicular rash affecting the palms of both hands, on the background of recent exposure to a patient with scabies. The patient had a history of childhood eczema and asthma but no exacerbations in adulthood. Examination and microscopy revealed a vesicular rash with an absence of any burrows, mites or eggs. A provisional diagnosis of pompholyx eczema was made and the patient was commenced on mild topical corticosteroids. The patient re-presented 5 days later with worsening symptoms and a severe vesico-bullous rash
