small pin size blisters on hands

just lately i've gotten these small pink/red blisters
on the plams and inside of my fingers,they hurt alittle
mostly of the morning and as the day goes by they seem to
fade,when they go to heal they get alittle brownish dot
in the center.from what i've been reaing and all i can find
is that it might be some type of Eczema?if so,is it something
that is only treatable (never goes away) or can i get rid of
it???
thanks for you comments.

I know most people claim the cause of this is not know but I would swear that I get breakouts of this type because of certain soaps.  Dial Anti bacterial will always cause it.

Dear Heather, I don't know if you will be back to see my reply or not, but I read your description today.  Your description fits my symptoms exactly!  I was glad to see that the doctor said it was not "catchy" as I have been worried I would spread it to my children.  Have you seen a dermatologist, and if so, what did they say?  Thanks.

Heather:

Sounds like dyshidrosis, a form of eczema once thought to be due to "bad sweating" (that's what the word means.)  Actually, we don't know what it's from, but it isn't catchy and often doesn't even need to be treated.  If the symptoms start to bother you, your dermatologist can help.

Best.
