What Does An Itchy Spot In The Right Hand Indicate?
I have itching on my right hand in just one spot. It is down from where my thumb attaches to my hand. If I press on where the itching is I can feel a tightening under the skin. My mother and my cousin both had dupuytrens contracture and didn t know if itching is a part of the progression.

Hello,
No, usually Dupuytren's contracture doesn't have the itchy sensation to my knowledge, it could be just an allergic infection which might get subsided with antihistaminics. Just apply any antihistaminic cream locally, and in a few days, it will be all fine.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Archana
