Clinical manifestations consistent with the characteristics of Nagashima-type palmoplantar keratoderma, with bilateral involvement of both hands and feet: well-demarcated diffuse erythema and non-mutilating hyperkeratosis on the palms and soles, with skin lesions that may extend beyond the palmoplantar boundaries to the dorsal aspects of the hands and feet, the medial aspects of the wrists, the ankles, and the Achilles tendon regions, and may also involve the elbows and knees, becoming swollen and whitish upon water immersion; 4. Baseline Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) score >= 2; 5. Patients must be willing to participate and able to provide written informed consent, and voluntarily comply with all protocol requirements; 6.

Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Use of any of the following medications or therapies within 2 weeks prior to study initiation: topical corticosteroids, keratolytics (e.g., 6% salicylic acid, 70% propylene glycol, 30% urea), retinoids, vitamin D ointments (calcipotriol), tacrolimus, compound lactic acid cream, or gentamicin cream. If any of the above applies, a washout period of at least 2 weeks will be mandatory prior to study initiation. This washout period is intended to minimize any residual effects of prior treatment before starting the study; 2. Use of any of the following medications or therapies within 4 weeks prior to study initiation: oral retinoids, JAK inhibitors (e.g., tofacitinib), methotrexate, cyclosporine, glucocorticoids, or other drugs that may improve erythema and hyperkeratosis. If any of the above applies, a washout period of at least 4 weeks will be mandatory prior to study initiation; 3. Use of benvitimod cream within 4 weeks prior to study initiation; if applicable, a washout period of at least 4 weeks will be required prior to study initiation; 4. Concurrent hand or foot fungal infection prior to enrollment; after the infection has resolved (complete resolution of clinical symptoms caused by fungal infection, such as papulovesicles, maceration and erosion, scaling, etc.; disappearance of pruritus; and negative fungal microscopy results), topical antifungal agents must be discontinued for at least 2 weeks and oral antifungal agents for at least 4 weeks prior to study initiation; 5. Known history of allergy or suspected hypersensitivity reaction to benvitimod cream, or contraindications to any component of benvitimod cream or drugs of a similar nature; 6. Currently participating in another clinical study with the same study objective; 7. Pregnant women, women planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding women; 8. Any other condition deemed by the investigator as unsuitable for study participation.
