itchy hands at night

Patient's Query

Feeling itching on Back of my palm and fingers during midnight between 2 to 5am . Unable to sleep because of that .

Answered by Samruddhi Bhartiya

It could be for any of the following reasons:

  • Hand eczema: Caused by exposure to harmful chemicals and moisture, here you may see cracks, redness, dryness and sometimes blistering too.
  • Contact dermatitis: If your itchiness is caused as a result of allergic reactions, it should resolve within in 48-96 hours. But then you would have to identify irritants in order to avoid them.
  • Diabetes indication: like if it damages your nerves, or liver and kidney, or if you develop an allergic reaction to medicines.
  • Cirrhosis: This condition primarily affects bile, and as a symptom of it you can experience itching, but then you will also experience following symptoms: bone pain, nausea, diarrhea, dark urine and jaundice.
  • Nerve disorder: here you have itchy palms at night mostly in the initial days.

This may happen due to many reasons, such as dry skin, eczema or allergies and contact dermatitis. Itch sensations may also be heightened at night due to the natural circadian rhythm of the body. It is advised to apply a hypoallergenic moisturizer before going to bed, which can mitigate symptoms of dry skin. It is possible to manage allergic reactions by identifying potential triggers such as certain soaps or fabrics and avoiding them. If chronic or aggravating, it is so recommended to consult a dermatologist for an in-depth evaluation and tailored treatment options targeting the true cause of nighttime scratch.

I have sweating glands under eyes. Can that be cured. If yes, how?

Sweating under the eyes is abnormal and may be an indication of such a problem as hyperhidrosis- this can signify something wrong in numerous parts of the body that appear to sweat profusely. Treatment alternatives range from topical antiperspirants, Botox injections, oral treatments to surgery if necessary. It is best to contact a dermatologist who can diagnose your specific condition and advise you on the most suitable treatment. They can give you a detailed assessment to find the root cause of your sweating and create an individual treatment plan that will help them deal with all these symptoms effectively. Remember, key to effective addressing of hyperhidrosis is the correct diagnosis as well as tailored treatment.

I am using skinshine cream for last 4 years. I dont have any side effects till now. But when i came to know the side effects of using this i decided to stop using this. So how i can safely stop this without more sideeffects

Female | 27

I get why you're worrie­d about stopping Skinshine cream after 4 ye­ars. Being careful about side e­ffects makes sense­. When you quit, your skin might get red, itchy, or dry. That happe­ns because it got used to the­ cream. To avoid more problems, try using it le­ss over time. First, use it e­very other day. Then e­very two days. Keep doing that until you stop. Going slowly like­ this can let your skin adjust without too much trouble. Also, moisturize lots during this change­ to keep your skin healthy.

Stay hydrated and maintain a healthy diet. Body odor isn't a complex issue—keeping clean is key. However, since bacteria are always present, it's important to combat odor daily.

Male | 43

You are likely experiencing a heat rash and chafing in your private areas. This usually happens because perspiration becomes trapped against the skin thereby irritating. Signs may include redness, itching, and sometimes little bumps. To assist with this, tighten any loose-fitting clothes, stay cool, and ensure it’s dry down there. Apply some soothing ointment and be sure to take breaks if possible.

Genital warts result from a virus which spreads via sex; they resemble tiny bumpy growths and may appear pink or flesh-colored, sometimes causing itchiness or pain.

I got acne on whole face first there is pimple and it convert into mark or acne . Or having white spot ,uneven tone the texture is very bad like hyperpigmentation.

Female | 23

Pimples occur when oil and dead skin cells block hair follicles thus leading to a condition called acne. The marks are usually a result of inflammation in the skin. Instances that can be white spots and not consistent in color are marks of hyperpigmentation. Be gentle to your skin, do not pick your skin, and use products with salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide.
