Suffering from Shoe Contact Eczema? Find Relief at Skin Clinic by Dr. Eram Razzaq Bahria Town Lahore
Shoe contact eczema is an allergic or irritant dermatitis caused by chemicals in footwear — commonly chromate (in tanned leather), rubber accelerators, glues and dyes — worsened by sweat and friction. It typically affects the tops of the feet and toes with itching, scaling, vesicles or fissures. At Skin Clinic by Dr. Eram Razzaq Bahria Town Lahore, our dermatologists confirm the diagnosis, take a detailed footwear history, and where indicated arrange patch testing to pinpoint the offending allergen. Active flares are settled with prescription topical corticosteroids; long-term control depends on avoiding identified allergens, choosing safer footwear (chrome-free leather or fabric), moisture management and barrier care. There is no cure if you remain exposed to the trigger — strict avoidance is essential. Consultation is required.

FAQs
Can shoe contact eczema be cured?
It clears only if the trigger is identified and strictly avoided. With ongoing exposure, the rash will return.
What are the most common allergens?
Chromate in tanned leather, rubber accelerators, glues and dyes. Patch testing helps identify which apply to you.
Why do my feet flare in summer?
Sweat increases the leaching of chemicals from footwear and irritates already-inflamed skin.
Is patch testing painful?
No. Patches are worn on the back for about 48 hours and then read by a dermatologist.
Where is the clinic?
Derma & Dental Clinic, Bahria Town Lahore.
