Like you I get bad excema with the blisters on my hands. I am 26 and it is worse than ever. I got it when I was around 10 years old. I\'ve been seeing a naturopath since September, but so far I have seen NO results and have spent a lot of money. He thinks it is my digestive system and liver that are not cleaning my system well enough and it comes out through my hands. I also had a holistic person tell me the exact same thing. I am no longer drinking milk or eating anyting with wheat (although I cheat once in a while, it\'s hard not to). I\'m a strange one though, it is not only in between my fingers it is also on my palms. It goes through usually 3 stages... 1. blisters 2. ITCHY 3. Dry and cracking. Anyways the naturopath assured me that he would not charge me anymore until we see results... so I\'m going to keep seeing him for a while longer and see if it improves. I realize there is no overnight cure but mine seems to be getting worse. The only thing that gave a quick (but temporary fix) was cortizone creams, but as I get older I get more immune to them I need stronger ones. And it never went away for more than a couple weeks at most using them. Anyways I will keep everyone updated if I see any results with the naturopath.
