I think I have the same problem. I currently work in a factory and was moved to another department in July. I work with felt and it was making my sinus act up so I bought sinus and allergy combined pill with ephedrine to combat this. My hands have been swollen, itchy and have peeled. I thought they were healing but had another reaction the other night. A woman I work with seen my hands and said she had the same thing and found out she was allergic to ephedrine. I told her I didn't even realize that could be it and was taking more to combat the allergy. I have stopped taking it and hope that it will clear up at this point. I've even been to the doctor and he just gave me a steroid cream that isn't helping. It itches so bad sometimes I wake up to myself itching my hands.I will let you know if this clears up. I hope you find out what it is.View Thread
