Jason PY - 2021 T2 - The Atlas of Emergency Medicine, 5e AB - Dyshidrotic eczema (also called pompholyx or acute vesiculobullous hand eczema) is the abrupt appearance of deep-seated, 1- to 2-mm vesicles on the sides of the fingers, palms, and soles. The vesicles are extremely pruritic, may coalesce into larger bullae, and may rupture to become dry or fissured. The outbreak usually resolves over a few weeks unless secondary infection develops. The differential includes bullous tinea, id reaction, scabies infestation, or allergic contact dermatitis.
