    Glossary Hand-Foot Syndrome

    causes redness, swelling, and pain on palms and soles

    Hand-Foot Syndrome, also known as Palmar-Plantar Erythrodysesthesia (PPE), is a side effect of certain chemotherapy drugs. It causes redness, swelling, and pain on the palms of the hands and the soles of the feet, and in severe cases, can lead to blistering and peeling of the skin. This condition occurs because the chemotherapy drugs leak out of the capillaries in these areas, leading to inflammation and damage.
