For dyshidrotic eczema, the skin lesions typically manifest as small vesicles located deep within the epidermis—usually rice-grain-sized, hemispherical, and slightly elevated above the skin surface. Lesions commonly occur on the palms, lateral aspects of the fingers, fingertips, and dorsum of the hands, often in a symmetrical distribution. Additionally, patients may experience pruritus (itching) and a burning sensation. In daily life, patients should maintain a balanced diet and avoid spicy foods to prevent symptom exacerbation.
