A member asked:
I have extremely itchy wrists and back of hands. also, my wbc count is elevated. could these symptoms be related?

Unlikely: If the WBC is related, you would more likely have a generalized skin issue. The wrist and hand itching are more likely related to contact to a contact allergen or irritant especially in occupational setting (also frequent hand washing). See dermatologist if problem persists.
