Why Does My Son Have Red Itchy Rash On Both His Hands?

Hello, my son is four years old and has a red itchy rash on the top of both of his hands. It starts at the base of his thumbs an extends around to the base of the middle finger. Exact same pattern on both hands. It is Friday night so we won't be able to get to the doctor until Monday. What could be going on? I am worried!
