Who can get Dyshidrotic Eczema?  

Studies have shown that the condition affects males and females in equal ratio. In the US Dyshidrotic eczema occurs in as many as 5-20% of patients with hand eczema and more commonly occurs in warmer climates and during spring and summer months. It is a severe condition and patients may need to take several days off from work to recover from it. Although it is seen in patients as young as four years of age, the frequency of episodes increases in middle age. 

It is most often the hands that are affected in this form of Eczema, although sometimes both hands and feet can also be affected.
