I have what looks like a giant L starting a couple of cm down from the base of my right hand and enveloping the left side of my hand. Face-up, it looks like half a heart from the right side of my right hand. It looks like it's burnt very lightly(it wasn't), it's scabby, but there's "non-scabby" skin. What looks "scabby" to me is black stuff that I can peel off with a good amount of effort. It gets itchy sometimes, but it is always uncomfortable. This stuff has also affected my left middle finger. And it smells weird(kinda warm)... Sometimes I think this is caused by washing my hands with hot water and strangely enjoying it.

I could ask my doctor, but that'd take too long and she'd probably just recommend a dermatologist or something. I want to know what this condition is so I can google it, and treat it myself.
