Common Questions and Answers about Itchy bumps on hands and feet

itchy

Avatar f tn Yesterday I noticed bumps on the tops (not palms or soles) of my hands and feet. Today there are more of them. Because they're really small, they would barely be noticeable if not for the red color. They basically just give my skin a bumpy texture. On my hands, most of them are on my right hand, on the sides of each hand where my thumbs are, and between my top knuckles and nails. There are less bumps on my feet and most of them are on the sides of each foot where my big toe is.
Avatar m tn Pompholyx primarily involves the hands and fingers and then may involve the feet. The first stage is acute and presents as itchy blisters on the hands, fingers and toes. Then the chronic stage shows more peeling, cracking, or crusting. Then the skin heals up, or the blistering may start again. The exact cause is not known and excessive sweating can be one of the reasons. I suggest you to get it examined from a dermatologist to confirm the diagnosis.
Avatar n tn Instead, a huge amount of bubbles of clear liquid appear underneath the skin of fingers, palms of the hand, and soles of feet. They are sometimes itchy and painful. The liquid eventually drains from the blisters back into the body, and the skin flakes off leaving a tender area of clear skin painful to touch. The cause of dishydrosis is hard to pinpoint. Other not so common causes are chickenpox, herpes simplex or impetigo. It could be due to allergy. So you could take an anti-histamine for it.
Avatar f tn Now I have four on my left, and three on my right, and now one on my right hand directly at the base of my thumb. All are equally painful and itchy and are driving my crazy!!! I've put some sudocream on them and they seemed to cool down for a short while before itching again. I've had chicken pox, and have never experienced this before. I'm actually pretty freaked out.
Avatar n tn Psoriasis, in addition to a rash on the skin, often displays changes on the fingernails or toenails of the affected hands and/or feet and is associated with sharp, round borders, while irritant or allergic dermatitis may have less-defined borders or involve only the skin of the hands or feet. Allergic contact dermatitis will sometimes clearly follow the pattern of recently acquired shoes or sandals.
1077961 tn?1279581749 You will notice these bumps on your joints, feet, hands, and sometimes scalp. UV rays do help, HOWEVER the slightest bit of sunburn or even a slight redness will increase the bumps and itching. If you choose to tan put bandaids over the spots on the back of your heels because they are usually pressed against the tanning bed and will really increase if they are aggravated at all.
Avatar f tn Hello, Apply topical antibiotics like Neosporin on the boil and for the dry itchy hands and feet get contact dermatitis and pompholyx ruled out. The exact cause is not known and excessive sweating can be one of the reasons. But some triggers like allergic reaction to soaps, detergents, foods, latex, nickel etc may trigger the symptoms. Apply some calamine lotion on the affected area and keep the area well moisturized.
Avatar f tn She advised it looked like a viral infection kids usually get and just to take some claritin. Now I have itchy bumps primarily on my feet and thighs, some on my hands and arms, hardly any on my torso area and none on my neck or face. It's been 3 days. I didn't do anything out of the ordinary (no different food, soap, detergent, etc.). Sometimes it looks like it's subsiding but new little bumps pop-up in new places.
800427 tn?1324945719 It itches only on the tops and between my toes and fingers...ive read about the soles of your feet and the palms of your hands becoming splotchy red and itchy while pregnant but mine are strictly the tops. I dont have a rash of hives or anything...the only bumps and cuts on them are from me scratching so much. I initially thought it must be from my feet and hands swelling due to all my water retention...
Avatar m tn Just yesterday I woke up with sores on my hands and fingers. The same sores are on my feet, elbows, ankles, and knees. They are small and red and focus mostly on the joints. These sores are very painful and feel like blisters. What are they and what can I do about them. I can't go to a doctor, because I have no insurance.
Avatar f tn In particular, perniosis could be the cause and it can be due to poor circulation and an allergic response to the cold. They are often painful and extremely itchy and may appear on your toes and fingers or your palms. It is usually aggravated by little personal physical exercise, lack of adequate sleep , imbalanced diet, or exposure to sudden cold. If this is not the case, and the corticosteroid cream does not help, it would be best to see your doctor for further evaluation and management.
Avatar f tn I have developed a new problem at I wondered if anyone else has.... I have been getting itchy bumps on my feet. They are similar to blisters but some seem to come to the surface of the skin while some remain below the surface. THEY ITCH LIKE CRAZY! Sometimes I can't sleep due to the itching. Sometimes my palms also itch but they do not blister they just turn bright red. Does anyone have this problem? Maybe it is not connected with MS. Just wondering if I am the only one with this problem.

Avatar f tn Itchy, red bumps on the fingers may develop after contact with any allergen. Scabies can cause itchy red bumps on the hands and finger webs. Fungal infection will cause bumps, scaling and itching. If there are blisters it is possible that it is due to dyshidrotic eczema. A correct diagnosis will help in deciding the exact treatment for your condition. Consult a dermatologist. Do keep me posted. Take care and regards!
Avatar f tn to my feet instantly and i began to get the same bumps from my hands on my feet between toes and on my big toe. I got a cream from mexico called konaturil. it has worked exceptionally for my toes and thats what it is for. i first noticed this rash on my pinkys at school and went to the nurse who cortisone cream. i will tell you right now, IT DOES NOT WORK. CORTISONE CREAM DOESN'T WORK. Its a steroid that will only enhance the itch and make move around your body as soon as its washed off.
Avatar n tn Just three days ago these little tiny bumps appeared on the side of my hands and fingers. They were very very tiny. Now, not only have they multiplied, they're also growing. Some bumpbs seem like theyre a little big larger while others seem like it's turned into a cluster of little bumps. They're very itchy. I tried using hydrocortisone, but that only helped stop the itch. It doesnt spread to anywhere besides the top/sides of my hands/fingers. Not the palms. Please help asap!
Avatar f tn My 12 year old brother has got similar bumps to these describes, he got them on his knees and elbows and then on his hands on the finger joints and knuckles as well as on his toes and they are spreading along his foot. We are going to take him to be looked at tomorrow.

Avatar n tn They start showing up under my palms and on my feet, and soon spread to being clear bumps with clear liquid inside between my fingers and on the sides of my feet and toes. I sweat a lot on my hands and feet, and that is where they show up. They do not itch, except when they get really bad, like lately- then my palms and sides of my feet itch like crazy. Here are a few pictures of what it looks like right now. Any help regarding what this is and how to deal with it is greatly appreciated!
