%X This article addresses the diagnostic challenges of palmoplantar dermatoses (PPD) within the scope of Primary Health Care (PHC). These common skin conditions, encountered in daily practice, exhibit a diverse range of symptoms and morphologies, complicating their diagnosis. They are etiologically classified into infectious inflammatory, non-infectious inflammatory, and hereditary keratodermas. While various dermatoses may affect the palms and soles, few are specific to this area. Notable examples include palmoplantar pustulosis, dyshidrosis, erythema pernio, and Bazex syndrome. Given the high prevalence of dermatological consultations in PHC, this article underscores the significance of PHC professionals' knowledge regarding these conditions. It proposes a diagnostic algorithm to facilitate their management and timely referral.
