My sister stared showing sudden rashes on her hands and she was quite in pain. So we decided to take her to Sri Ramakrishna Hospital as it is nearby to where we live. The doctor carefully examined her condition and diagnosed the rash to be eczema. As it was detected in early stages the doctor prescribed few medications that hep in restricting the spread.
