The rash is often itchy and painful, which prevents him from performing his duties to his best ability and he is worried about continuing to work. Additionally, it has impacted his ability to play golf, a hobby that he enjoys in his spare time.
LH has tried wearing work gloves, but due to the nature of the job he is unable to wear them the entire time. He’s also tried different creams, but that had little effect.
