Suggest Remedy For Rough, Thickening, Bleeding, Cracked Skin Of The Knuckes

On a few of my fingers I have developed a rough and dry thickening of skin on my knuckles. They sometimes crack open and bleed. A pumice stone shaves it down and I don t feel the skin, but it just comes back. I have been told it might be eczema, but I am not convinced. I need help please, and I am wondering if anyone has any ideas of how to get rid of this?

You complain that there is rough skin with bleeding sport.This is present in eczema also.

In allergies of any substances may lead to this type of skin roughness.

In psoriasis, there is peeling of skin occur and pin point sports are remain. Skin become rough and dry in this condition.

In fungal infection there is dry rough skin with kunkle may present.

As soon as possible you have to contact dermatologist for further diagnosis.
