Reddit reviews PediFix Dexterity Fabric-covered Finger Protector with Visco-gel Large

I have dyshidrotic eczema, which starts with small, itchy blisters, and ends up looking a lot like that once those come to the surface. Like many others with dyshidrotic eczema, I also have a nickel allergy which I didn't develop until recently; I cut canned foods out of my diet, and put a protective cover on my macbook keyboard. I'd hit up a dermatologist for advice.

Personally, I use a strong topical steroid called clobetasol propionate during flare-ups and wear nitrile gloves with aquaphor every night. If your fingers are sensitive and are having trouble healing, buy some finger protectors off amazon. I find without them, I pick at it too much and it doesn't heal properly. I've had some really good luck with this, and haven't had flareups since I started wearing gloves every night, and avoiding contact with Nickel.

Ouch! Did you try to get the sliced-off bit to reattach? If you'd gotten medical attention right away, they probably could have gotten it to reattach. If it's gone, you'll be left with an extremely thin skin covering over the bone, and given the location, there's a pretty big risk of breaking through to the bone accidentally in the future. Hopefully it will form a thick scar, but there's not much skin to work with there.

I really think you should seek professional medical attention, but if you can't or really don't want to, I'd definitely recommend keeping it bandaged as long as there is any liquid discharge at all, or any scab still present. When it's fully healed over, you might want to invest in something like this https://www.amazon.com/PediFix-Dexterity-Fabric-covered-Protector-Visco-gel/dp/B0045VJONE?th=1 to protect it when using your hands at least for the first couple of weeks after it's healed over.
