I've had a rash on the right hand by the base of the thumb since nov. when it first broke out. using tacrolimus .1. is it due 2 allergy or internal?

Rash on thumb: Rash in this location is most likely a contact dermatitis - whether allergic or irritant. If the rash was bilateral and symmetrical i would be more inclined to think of something internal.
