Palms turn white and flaky after contact with water
Hi everyone,
I’ve had this on my palms for a few days (maybe longer, I didn’t pay much attention at first). Whenever my hands get wet, especially after a shower, washing my hands, or even just rinsing them for a few seconds, the skin turns white/dry-looking and kind of flaky.
It’s mostly on the palms and becomes much more visible after contact with water. I don’t have major pain, maybe just a bit dry/tight feeling.
Does this look familiar to anyone? Could this be hand eczema, irritation from soap/water, or something else?
