Hello everybody,

Please pray for my left hand. The back of my hand, the parts between the knuckles are red, and even the part between the knuckles and that first joint are red. They're not like rashes but they itch. Sometimes, there are cracks. It is also sort of bumpy, and if I press the red spot for a second then the redness disappears for a second or two, then it returns. It has been like this for over a month (maybe over two, I don't remember when it started). It has gotten better and then worse, and the better again in a never ending cycle. But during the past few weeks, my hand has been generally been better than the worst days. The last three days, it seems to have worsened a bit.

My dad (a physician) had me try Lotrimin, hydrocortosone, A&D oilment and it isn't working. The back of my hand heals easier than the parts between the knuckles. I've also tried vasaline and ice. And I've to a traditional Chinese doctor (they use Chinese herbs etc. instead of Western medicine), he said I might be allergic to beef (I hope not). But I haven't been eating beef for the last few days and have only been eating relatively healthy foods, but my hand is still getting more and more red.

I have no idea what it is but I wish I knew. And sorry for the bad descriptions, I really don't know how to describe it, but if you have questions, go ahead and ask.

Your prayers would be great.

Thanks! And be blessed by the LORD!!!
