See dermatologist: Sounds like an irritant contact dermatitis, or if she is ill with a cold virus, she might have theses skin findings also. See dermatologist. Perhaps cold water soaks for 20-15 mins might be helpful , followed by the application of an otc hydrocortisone cream until she is evaluated by the dermatologist

A 28-year-old female asked:
Episodes of redness, burning sensation, numbness and vein swelling in my feet, ankles, and sometimes hands at night or when standing. The skin itself is not cracked or dry. Socks, shoes and hot shower makes worse. Elevating feet helps. Any ideas?

Circular dry patch on my wrist more noticeable some days than others. I've noticed that when I put lotion it gets red and I feel a burning sensation.
