Hello, You could try searching " pompholyx" to see if this matches your symptoms. It is a condition that only affects the hands and feet. Hope this helps as I know from experience how miserable this can be!

This is something you should see your gp or a podiatrist about, any problems with the feet when diabetic needs to be seen by your health care team.

I get Pompholyx on the soles of my feet & hands too.(I'm Type 2). It's a type of excema. It usually blisters then dries & cracks & peels. Some people find it terribly itchy and sore- mine never itches though.
It does need seeing / diagnosing & treating if it is that - but treatment is notoriously difficult I believe.
