My Daughter Is A Trainee Hairdresser And Suffering Irritable Contact Dermatitis On Her Hands And Fingers?

Posted by: Alan in Contact Dermatitis, tags: Contact, Daughter, Dermatitis, Fingers, Hairdresser, Hands, Irritable, Suffering, Trainee

She has stopped washing hair for a few weeks now and the condition is still getting worse, but only on hands, side of hands all fingers and tips of fingers. Very itchy breaking out with cuts and bleeding. THe consultant has done test patching given her emollients to wash and rub in. Steroid creams not helping. Does anyone have any advice or help to give me?

No you need to get back to the doctors and they should give you more cream. Its trial and error

I am afraid she has become sensitized to the chemicals and needs to avoid them. This is the best treatment.
