A rare skin disease characterized by transient wrinkling of the skin, edema, formation of whitish papules, pruritus, burning sensation, or pain, on the palms and/or soles in response to contact with water.

The condition is more common in females than in males and frequently occurs in patients with cystic fibrosis.
