Bad impression of the day

[dsrtao]

For several months, I've had dry, scaly skin on the back of my right hand and down several fingers. Thus, there's a bottle of skin moisturizer on my desk.

Today I came to work, probably too soon, partially in order to wave the flag and partially to not get completely behind the eight ball. I brought in a box of tissues, 'cause I'm sneezing a lot.

I think I'll move these two items away from each other now...

Not yet. Lowering my stress levels, occasional moisturizing, and frequent exposure to sunlight seem to have almost eradicated it.

I hope I'm not being annoying

Layman's diagnosis, especially because the sunlight helped: fungal. Get some of the cream sold for athlete's foot and give it a try.

My sweetie's case took about a year to resolve, even with the Rx cream, but yours sounds like you're conquering it, so should resolve soon.

I tried that early on, for about a week, and it didn't seem to help. If it starts to bother me again, I will see a doctor about it.
