Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
my 17 year old daughter gets small red, non-itchy bumps on the tops of her hands when we go on vacation (yearly) to Florida (we live in Wisconsin). They seem to get worse each year... her hands are covered this year and she even got some on the top of her feet and on her knees. We got home today and they already seem to be getting better. How can we prevent this next year?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
It is her skin sensitivity to certain atmospheric pollens creating the issue.
Measures to be taken next year are as follows: • Always cover the hands, feet, knee while moving around with proper cotton, clean clothes • Apply mild layer of coconut oil or lavender oil before going outside • Maintain her hydration at its best • Balanced nutritious diet • Avoid smoking or alcohol if using
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Purva Patel
