question: I have an itchy rash on the palm of my hand and thumb. It presented this time last year too, After trying every kind of over the counter cream and a visit to my doctor and steroids, nothing worked. Finally after about 10 weeks it went away. It didn t come back until now, a year later. It is only on my right hand and it itches terribly. I don t want to go back to my doctor again for him to say he doesn t know what it is.
