Suggest remedy for throbbing and itching in left palm
Patient: I have a wierd feeling in my left palm. Close to the area between the thumb and pointer finger (sorry, I m forgetting all the correct terms) It s almost throbing at times, and then I almost get some sort of itch and not only do I just scratch it, I end up biting and pulling with my teeth to get rid of the feeling. I think it happened before, and got better later. Never lasted more than a day. But this is probably the third time it happened, so I m wondering if there s a bigger issue? Doctor: Hello,I read carefully your query and understand your concern. The symptoms can be related to many medical conditions.One of the common causes is dermatitis of the palm.I suggest using an antihistamines such as Cetirizine 10  mg daily.I also suggest using a steroid cream for local application. If the symptoms continue, see your physician and get evaluated. Hope my answer was helpful.If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.Kind regards!
