Itchy pomphylix: Also known as dyshidrotic eczema, is an intensely itchy that can be acute, chronic, or recurrent dermatosis of the fingers, palms, and soles, frequently with sudden onset of many deep-seated itchy, clear vesicles; later, scaling, fissures which can cause pain. It is diffult to treat and often requires potent steroids. There are other treatments. Consult doc/dermatologist for eval. Good luck.

Occlusive dressing: I hope you are already under the care of a physician or dermatologist because you will need a moderate or high potency topical steroids! in any case , you can use simple stuff in addition to your regimens, aquaphor ointment with occlusive dressing. Believe it or not , the good old crisco costs less and very effective skin moisturizer. You have to use quite a bit to keep your skin hydrated.
