How to treat hand eczema

"Hand eczema" usually refers to eczema or dermatitis of the skin on the hands, which may present as dry skin, itching, redness, scaling, or even cracks. The key to treating hand eczema or dermatitis lies in moisturizing and controlling inflammation. Below are some treatment recommendations: 1. **Physical therapy**: Hand eczema is a relatively common skin condition, primarily caused by fungal infection. After infection, the skin may become itchy and painful. Patients can improve symptoms through local application of heat or cold compresses. It is also important to maintain hand hygiene to avoid affecting recovery. 2. **Topical medications**: Under a doctor's guidance, apply antifungal creams such as terbinafine hydrochloride cream, econazole nitrate cream, or naftifine ketoconazole cream. These medications generally have anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects and can relieve itching and alleviate symptoms. 3. **Oral medications**: Under a doctor's guidance, take antifungal medications such as fluconazole capsules, terbinafine hydrochloride tablets, or itraconazole capsules. These drugs generally have antifungal properties and can improve hand eczema.
