Clear, intraepidermally located, usually occurring in groups of smallest, < 0.1cm to 0.2-0.3cm, variably pruritic vesicles. These precursors are often not registered (or completely absent).

When the vesicles dry up, lamellar, raised, sometimes ruff-like or even circine desquamations of the groin skin of fingers and palms develop. The changes are mainly noticed on the hands, although they also occur on the soles of the feet.

The primary manifestation of the disease is a coarse lamellar desquamation of the skin, so that clinically the disease is only perceived as a recurrent lamellar desquamation. The clinical picture progresses in episodes with frequencies of varying length.
