Workup
Further workup ruled out contact dermatitis, polymorphic light eruption, and heat as the culprit, confirming that the reaction was due to true photosensitivity rather than to photoaggravation. [14] Pompholyx caused by UVA exposure may possibly be considered [emedicine.medscape.com]
Treatment
Management [ 9 ] The condition is self-limiting but, as it can be intensely itchy, symptomatic treatment may be in order. In practice, many patients require a combination of treatments [ 10 ]. [patient.info]
Treatment Dyshidrosis normally responds to treatment. However, some treatment strategies might not work with some individuals and work for others. [doctordecides.com]

Pathophysiology [ 1 ] The term dyshidrosis indicates a sweating abnormality but histology reveals no evidence of eccrine (sweat) gland involvement. Histologically, the vesicles are intra-epidermal with little or no inflammatory change. [patient.info]
Pathophysiology The hypothesis of sweat gland dysfunction has been disputed because vesicular lesions have not been shown to be associated with sweat ducts. [dermaamin.com]
Prevention
Prevention Because the cause of dyshidrosis is generally unknown, there's no proven way to prevent this condition. You may help prevent the condition by managing stress and avoiding exposure to metal salts, such as cobalt and nickel. [mayoclinic.org]
Make sure to boil chlorine-treated water first before mixing it with salt to prevent irritating the blisters further. [doctordecides.com]
