In brief A variety of dermatologic problems affect the hands and feet of active patients, often producing significant pain and disability. Traumatic disorders include friction blisters, calcaneal petechiae, subungual hemorrhage, and plezogenic papules. Infectious disorders include hot tub folliculitis, swimming pool granuloma, tinea pedis, warts, and herpetic whitlow. Athletic shoe dermatitis is a common allergic disorder, and hand eczema is a common disorder with a strong hereditary component. Prompt diagnosis and treatment can minimize morbidity. Some traumatic disorders can be prevented.
