Index finger rash
Common Questions and Answers about Index finger rash
finger
Hi,
I am a 26 year old white male, about a month and a half ago I noticed a dry patch on my left hand index finger. I paid little attention to it until there was a similar patch on the thumb and on the right hand index finger.
I bought some cream with 1% clotrimazole and began applying it twice daily for the last seven days. During this time the rash seems to have continued to spread outward and I am now also noticing it on my left hand ring finger.
I've spent hours researching this and have found many similar conditions but mine isn't the same so any help would be great. A few weeks ago I got a very mildly itchy rash on the sides of my index and ring fingers and only slightly on top as well. I assumed it was poision ivy and ignored it. The bumps dried out and stopped itching and have peeled in some spots. They don't itch or burn or have any fluid in them.

I'm experiencing the exact same symptoms (extremely itchy bubble blisters on index finger, rash on abdomen) with additional rashes on my forehead, on the side of my left eye & on both ears. - Did you ever receive a diagnosis? This has been going on for weeks, with varying levels of severity. I had a patch test performed by an allergist; I'm not allergic to anything that was included in the test.
I have had little small bumps on my left index finger for a about twelve months and it comes and go once I rub my finger against somthing, I never thought anything of it because I work with my hands and I figured it could be a rash until now while reading about herpes and herpetic whitlow and now Im beginning to question myself if I may have contracted the herpes virus, I have had no symptoms or outbreaks on my mouth, penis, anus, or anywhere else on my body, it doesn't hurt when I urinate,
I'm not sure what this is related to but I at times get little small bumps on my index finger and sometimes it spreads to parts of my hand and index finger. I'm not sure if its herpetic whitlow or some form of herpes or just maybe a skin rash or wart. I have been having this issue for about 12-18 months now but it occurs when I rub my finger against a ruff surface.
I noticed over the weekend I have what looks like a few brown spots on my fingers. I wouldn't call it a rash necessarily because it's not raised or itchy, it literally looks like smeared chocolate that hadn't been fully washed off. I have three spots on my index finger and one dot on my pinky. Could this be std related? I had oral sex almost 2 weeks ago with other male. Since I haven't had any symptoms but my throat feeling sore in the mornings and recently these brown spots.
two weeks ago my middle finger on my left hand started to peel at the tip and just on top of the finger knuckle. a day or two later another peeling spot appeared on the side of my left index finger. I haven't noticed any other peeling areas on my hands other than these two spots although I am now fixating on them to te extent that I am starting to see things lol
No itching associated with them at all.
I have these small red bumps running down my index finger. They are small sometimes there are multiple close together but usually are spread out. It’s not near my joints it just kind of runs down my finger. It’s really itchy sometimes, they become dried and looks like a peeled blister and goes away after awhile. Anybody know what’s wrong?
The rash probably occurred a few days after the problem with the finger. The rash probably was caused by scratching the skin in different areas (armpits, thighs). Other things: I saw a woman who gave me a massage about a week to 10 days before the rash occurred. I did touch the woman’s genitals and other areas but didn’t put my finger inside. Everything else was covered. I am also on the borderline of type 2 diabetes (I’m 50).
To make it worse, I have had on and off headaches for the past week, no fever, just headaches (97-98 degrees), cold night sweats, no real ARS type rash, maybe a slight heat rash, but nothing with red spots, just ordinary pink type heat rash. I think my anxiety has the best of me here. I do not have a sore throat , but fear that I may come up with a sore throat and it'll definitely worsen my fears.
Please someone respond and let me know.
My right hand has a very different looking, concentrated rash on the back of my index finger (plus a small single dot on my middle finger). Both hands developed the rashes on the same day. It never itched or raised up, you can't feel there's anything there. They started out redder than they are now, they seem more brownish now. I've attached a photo of both hands, ignore the dark red scar, that is a burn mark (I burned this finger after the rash had developed).
I have a recurring blister-like rash on my index fingers and, occasionally, my thumbs. There are many tiny bumps, about a mm thick, filled with clear fluid. There is severe itching and a burning sensation, releived and aggrevated by scratching. I've been given hydrocortizone and piriton but they do little to help the problem. The itching is only briefly releived by pouring very hot water on my fingers. What can this be?
I took a puck off of my right index finger and didn't really notice any immediate pain. Over the next couple days I noticed that I couldn't form a fist because my finger was very swollen and hurt to bend that far. Upon further observation I noticed that my first finger knuckle had become very wide, but the rest of my finger remained regular size. It is also very sensitive to touch.
I also notice the same numbness whenenever I ride my bike after 20 minutes or so. There also is a rash (?) on my index finger than resembles eczema on the backside of the finger and just dry dead skin on the side and palmside of the finger. What could be causing this? What should I do? I do not experience the same numbness with my left hand at all!!
I had gone to palm springs california and what not, (did not wear any sun protection lotions) and a while after I started noticing spots on my left hand mostly on the fingers and a mark on my right index finger that goes from my knuckle to the middle of my finger. If anyone could please take a look at the images linked and please tell me if this is something serious i should worry about or only skin damage caused by too much unprotected sunlight.
