Two years ago my sister developed a skin rash that spread from the outer part of her right hand to about two inches above her wrist. At first the rash was very itchy, and had the appearance of a "weeping, reddish kind of rash" but within the last several months it has dried up and stopped itching. Shehas been to several dermatologists but they all give her very expensive creams and other medications which have done no good at all. She even had a biopsy taken, but they found nothing. We are from a small town on the east coast.. We are looking for a specialist. even if we have to go to New York. (No other part of her body is affected.)(She was hospitalized when all of this first happened on 3 different occasions! The last incorrect diagnosis was something like "sebhorric (sp) dermatitis" But the last two dermatologists said that wasn't the correct diagnosis.They too were unable to diagnose this very strange rash.)
Does anyone PERSONALLY know of a specialist in the field of dermatology
