Is Pruney Fingers And Autoimmune Disorder Are Related?
I have suffered drenching night sweats for many years and have been diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder about 2 years ago. Lately they have been severe and this am I woke up with pruned fingers. This occasionally happens but this am it didn t go right away. My hands stayed extremely wrinkled and felt dry and rough. Now they are starting to peel. I tried moisturizer and have been drinking water?? Could this be autoimmune??
HI Thank for asking to HCM I really appreciate your concern and looking to the history given here I could say that the pilling of skin may not be due to the autoimmune disorder but this could be a dry skin and in my opinion you need to see the dermatologist to have a opinion, else no need to worry about any thing, take care and have a nice day.
