How To Treat Itchy,burning Patches On The Palms?
Hello, i m 28,f,and small build,about4 8. For a year now i ve been suffering with chronic ear infection and hives. I was put on steroids and it seemed to have disappeared, but now it s back. I ve seen 8 doctors and they all say it s allergy and the ears are a secondary infection, but they cant tell me what i m allergic to. recently I have developed itchy,burning patches on my plams and soles of my feet, white rings appear, for a bit and it comes and goes. I had a shot of depo medrol last friday but seems to have done nothing to alleviate symptoms..desperate for an answer,or to know which way to pursue, thank you

Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
Your symptoms seem to be related to an allergic reaction.
To check the allergen that is causing the symptoms, I suggest to do the allergy tests .
Meanwhile,I suggest to use a steroid cream for a local application such as Betametasone cream.
I also suggest to do steroid shots to relieve the symptoms.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
