SECOND TIME DYSHIDROSIS

by Esteban
(Queens, NY)

I'm a 26 y/o male. This is the second time I have had dyshidrosis. Usually, I have a mild hyperhidrosis (sweaty hands) all the time, but I've noticed that it appears under very CHRONIC STRESSFUL situations... First time, I was doing my internship in a military hospital (Quite stressful) and this time is because I'm weeks away from doing my Step 2 CK exam (it's a kind of medical licensing exam).

What helped very much the first time was Hydrocortisone cream 0.5% (very mild topical steroids). I'll have to see if they work this time!
