I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. The redness usually affects the outer edge of the palms in a band from the wrist to the little finger. The exact cause is unknown but is thought to be due to blood vessels dilating as a result of changes in hormone balance. Red palms can also be a sign of an overactive thyroid or rheumatoid arthritis. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
