Need Treatment For Allergic Dermatitis.

I have spots of allergic dermatitis on the top of my hands ive noticed it for a few weeks and its spreading around the top of my hand.i diagnosed this myself.i am a painter in a facility and most of the time the powdercoat gets on the tops of my hands so I think that is where its coming from. I cant eliminate the chances of getting in on my hands because its my job.is there something I can use to get rid of it and prevent it down the road that I can get in store without a doctor visit?

Hello,

Your symptoms seem to be related to contact dermatitis. I suggest using antihistamines such as Cetirizine 10 mg to prevent the itching. I also suggest using Hydrocortisone cream for local application.

Hope my answer was helpful. If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Regards,
