The past couple of weeks or maybe a little more, I have had a strong irritation on my thicker part of skin under my thumb. Its only my left hand and its just on the palm that is on the right if looking directly at my thumbnail. Or, the far slightly outer left of my palm looking into my hand. It feels like it is extremely irritated almost like as if someone rubbed it for a very long period or as if it was burnt and super sensitive. I used to wash my hands in very hot water but not so hot that it burned me and my other hand and the rest of my left hand are perfectly fine so I don't think it is related but just in case, I added that in. What do you think it could be? I don't have the extra $150 lying around to make a quick doctor visit unless it was an extremely serious issue.
