Common Questions and Answers about Finger joint itch

finger

Avatar f tn It appears to happen about the first joint of the finger. The skin becomes rough, red, scaly and hard and the skin peels away, making it raw underneath. It is quite unslightly.
Avatar n tn When they are yellow they can be a bit painful if bumped. They itch and sometimes the skin peels. My nail as is grows is very bumpy now with white lines or white looking holes(not really holes, just looks that way) I thought I originally got bit by a spider, already had a round of antibiotics, didn't help. I have been dealing with this for almost 4 months and my doc says it will just go away. It actually seemed like it was gone for about 10 days then all of a sudden it was back.
Avatar f tn I have a rash that appears and disappears. It is the same each time - raised red skin in the shape of a j along the side of my index finger closest to my thumb. It goes the length of the middle digit and gets a darker red closest to the joint. It doesn't hurt or itch but is uncomfortable because of some swelling at the site. It goes away without treatment but reappears in the same spot. It has been happening off and on for over a year. Thanks for your help.
Avatar n tn Almost two decades ago, I noticed three small pink bumps at the beginning of my cuticle. Over time the condition has spread very slowly up my finger. It is now nearly to the first joint. It doesn't itch, or hurt in any way until it cracks and bleeds. I have tried everything over the years! It seems to have cycles of flare and times when it almost goes away by itself. I don't have it on any other part and my wife has never contracted it.
19430244 tn?1477535908 Could it be a sign of gout?? She called today and said that her middle finger was swollen from the middle joint out to the end when she woke up this morning. She can hardly bend it. Said that she hadn't jammed it or anything. Thinks it may be gout.
Avatar n tn next i noticed that i get these painful bumps under my skin on my pointer fingers only (so far) they are only red if i mess with them but you can feel them if you run your finger accross. i notice they come and go. for example yesterday got 2 bumps on right figer on side of 1st joint. today still had them, but as soon as i started stressing out about what it could be i started w 2 on the left finger. very annoying constant dull pain but "itchy painful".
Avatar n tn i have a lump on the finger (the one next to my little finger) it's been there for just over 2 months & isn't going down atall, it is on the nail side up side of the finger on the the 2nd joint from the fingernail? Does anyone know what this could be, I am worried it is cancer???
Avatar f tn Arthur Ritis has been known to take us from joint to joint. We never know which joint is next. Sorry, a little humor. MSM has been known to help with arthritis pain because it cuts down on the inflammation. I have recently started taking it myself, as I have Fibromyalgia and anything that cuts inflammation is okay in my book! If you decide to try it, 1000mg with the meal of your choice is recommended. Hope you feel better soon.
Avatar f tn ve been having minor pain in the smallest joint on my fourth finger on my right hand. Because I work seven days a week during the school year, I never saw the doctor. But it started getting worse. It hurts, if my fist is closed, to bump the knuckle from above. It also hurts to stretch my fingers out (laying flat is okay, but if I try to stretch them at all, it hurts).
Avatar n tn ) These bruises cause an immediate intense, hot pain and sometimes itch. Finally, in one spot where I got one of these reactions, the top joint of my little finger, there is now a pronounced hard lump; this could have been there before and I didn't notice it until I had the pain. Finally, and potentially completely unrelated, I was recently diagnosed with Lichen's Sclerosus. Does any of this make any sense to you?
Avatar f tn All of a sudden the piece of skin in between my thumb and finger has become stiff. I don't think it would be trigger finger but i might be wrong. It won't go either. What can I do? It's hard to stretch my thumb away from the hand and spread my fingers without it hurting.

Avatar m tn m a house painter and recently brought my hand down onto the sharp point of one of my painting tools. It cut into the side if my rt hand middle finger, middle joint (between the knuckle and the lower joint) It bled a bit and swelled up of course. That was over two weeks ago. I still have noticable swelling in that joint, especially on the rt side, and considerable pain. The rest of my hand hurts lately, probably from compensating for the lack of use of the middle finger. Any ideas?
Avatar m tn I'm 28 and I have joint pain in my finger joints and I feel it in my wrists sometimes too. And in the digits of my feet (I think). I have no RF in my blood and the doctor said just take Ibuprofen. I am slightly over weight because of bulimia. I've had gluten sensitivity problems (makes me sluggish and hungry). AND labyrinthitus in the past months. No thyroid problems. Not diabetic. Feeling it might be Fibromyalgia ? I'm lost.
Avatar f tn I have been having these symptoms myself for about two to three months. The time that it was the worst, the outside of my index finger on my left hand was covered in bumps and it was very itchy, and my middle finger on that hand was swollen and sore at the joint. I noticed it after a morning of intense deep cleaning my house, so I wonder if it is an allergic reaction to the cleaners I use. I have seasonal allergies.

Avatar n tn darkening on skin on back of hand, just the first finger joint and some of the webbing between thumb and hand. Looks like a deep tan, but doesn't seem to fade. Not raised. Does not itch or hurt. The effect is not present under my ring, as if it were a tan.
1427077 tn?1282913207 I have a lump on the top joint of my index finger which has been there for about 2 months now. Sometimes its sore but now always & its starting to get bigger. Is it worth getting it checked out?
Avatar n tn When there is a capsular injury to a joint in finger, it is best to give the RICE treatment for a few days such as rest, ice application, compression bandage (you can strap the injured finger with the neighboring finger) and elevation (keep hands elevated on a pillow at bed time). You can also take an anti-inflammatory pain killer. Once the injury settles down and there is less pain you have to start physiotherapy.
Avatar f tn Hello Doctor, So a few weeks ago, I noticed a tiny red bump (the size of a sesame seed) on my pointer finger on the side that faces my thumb (the outside) right on the joint. Ever since, I would get a few clustered around the joints on that side on both fingers which stay for only about a week before they go away and new ones come up. Sometimes they would itch a little or hurt when I apply pressure to them, and sometimes they don't even feel like they're there.
Avatar f tn IT IS ADD ON ...ALSO I NOTICED BURNING OTHER PARTS OF MY BODY. I have raynauds in both hands & feet, roscea in face & currently getting slowly JOINT PAIN IN SOME FINGER S AND 1 ELBOW NO REDNESS BUT SWELLING AT THE JOINT.
Avatar m tn There is no blisters, It does not hurt, it does not itch, much less present on my toes. It can sometimes peel deep enough to make my fingers bleed a little (3 out of ten figers currently have scabs and when they bleed it does sting a little). It feels like there is a lot of dead skin on my fingers before peeling. On my big toes, the skin can peel a little often when I clip the nail. They can peel just about to the middle joint of each finger and part of the quibical (spelling?).
Avatar f tn any amount of swelling in a small joint such as a finger joint can cause quite a bit of discomfort. It sounds like you "jammed" the joint(s). It can take a long time to resolve. Like 6-9 months. You could try soaking it in hot water to loosen things up and try to pull and put tension on the finger to loosen up the joint. Pull the finger slowly, steadily, and gently straight out. I have found this can help loosen it up and relieve some pressure in the joint.
Avatar n tn You could have injured interphalangeal joint of your finger. The multiple joint involvement could also be due to infection or due to reactive arthritis. Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
