Common Questions and Answers about Itchy skin knuckles
itchy
I have developed brown, leathery spots on the middle knuckels of both of my hands. Recently it has begun to develope on the index knuckles and this week they became red and painful as though I had scraped or chaffed them?
What is this?
I have been treating them with a Burt's Bees Rescue balm which is soothing the red and soreness, however the leathery ovals remain.
A friend of mine in his early 20's has had 'blackening' of his knuckles over ~6 weeks. They are also thick, like a callous, but no boxing, or other trauma, and no pigmentation or rash anywhere else, including elbows, knees, etc. This is not itchy or painful.
m a healthy 19 yr old male, I dont have any recorded allergies, however for the past year or so my Knuckles and areas around the knuckle on both hands have become red and itchy, this is the ONLY area of concern, my diet hasn't changed nor has my lifestyle, in fact I'm eating healthier and working out more, the only major change would be that i'm entering/entered stage 4 of puberty, this knuckle issue is becoming a concern as I am completely unaware of what it is, several MD's hav
My knuckles have red, itchy patches on them too! They crack open and bleed. I know it's because of the cold weather and from always having my hands in soapy water at work. I try lotion, but it hurts and why put lotion on when I have tons of dishes to wash at work, sanatizer water, washing my hands? I just wash the lotion off seconds after I put it on anyway. I work in a cafe at Barnes and Noble, so my hands are constantly in sanatizer water and soap. A customer told me try vaseline.
As in... hours, both my hands have become very dry. Right one is starting to crack. It wasn't like this yesterday. I figured, low humidity. Steam not helping, all the windows are open and it's a very foggy night, not helping. Heater is off, not helping either. There are no blisters, but cracks are forming near the knuckles. Skin is getting more and more red. I've never been diagnosed with eczema before.
Hi, for almost 5 years I have had this issue, dark patches on big toes knuckles and some fingers as well; the patches are not itchy but thicker and kind of brown. All blood tests including glucose fasting and thyroid came good. Any clue?
about month and a half ago got rash on both hands (first and second knuckles on back of hand). got slight skin breakages on both knuckles. became like raised bumps (never hurt) and both went down like 2-3 weeks ago but never fully healed. then one on right knuckles went away with some rash still remaining to this day. one on left hand grew bigger again when other went away and got some skin breakage on it.
Okay, about one month ago a small red, itchy, sore bump came up on the lower part of the inside part of my thumb. At first I thought it was a wart, but now its skin colored and really rough. Around one week ago, another bump came up on the lower inside part of my finger. This one is very sore, and because it is right in the bend of my finger it is always hurting. It's pink, slick, very itchy and very annoying.
One of my middle knuckles and my pinkie finger have swollen, dry, cracked and itchy skin on the knuckle area...on my pinkie it extends down the side of my finger somewhat. Does anyone have any idea what this might be and what I can do to fix it. I am awaiting insurance to get instated before going to the doctor, so I am trying to figure out what to do in the meantime.
Thanks!
Maybe an hour after handling some flowers (marigolds, petunias, and chickweed), I noticed a burning sensation in my knuckles. That went away after an hour or so, although it continued if I dried my hands roughly with a towel for the next few days. Anyway, a day or so after the initial contact, I noticed about 10 small red marks on my right hand, and 2 or 3 on my left hand -- on the knuckles or the base of my fingers (back of the hand, not the palm side).
my skin is cracking and there are little red bumps starting from the knuckles down. My knuckles are peeling a little bit and they look slightly blue like they are bruised. Oh and they itch Super bad.!! I scratch and now they started to bleed a little... I tried putting lotion and medicine on it but it ends up burning alot.! :c so I dont know if it has to do with my pregnancy or what but it hurts really bad... Im 27 weeks...
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. They don't have fluid in them and are not itchy or painful, they just make moving my hands and feet feel weird.
I started treatment 7 days ago. Over the last week these dots have spread to 3 of my knuckles on my right hand and two knuckles on my left. These are all the knuckles I crack. I don’t crack my pinkies or my right index finger because it was injured years ago and doesn’t crack and these knuckles are fine. Also, a few dots are starting to go up my left arm.
Is this worth bringing up to my doc? I have an appointment tomorrow to see what my viral load is after the first week of treatment.
Hi, about a week ago my right hand became swollen on the fingers and spawned red blotches of varying sizes on the fingers between the knuckles of the phalanges. The blotches are itchy and provide some resistance to clenching a fist though not preventing it. There is some mild itching on the meta-carpel knuckles. It seems odd that it is only on 1 hand.
My question is if the other person used her elbow and knuckles to rub the anus (putting elbow and knuckles between butt cheeks and rubbing the anus). Is this considered zero risk like mutual masturbation, or is there ANY risk for std's, especially the skin to skin std's (HSV and HPV). I read that hand skin is "rough" and std's can't really stay on it, the skin on elbow and knuckles are not the same.
