small itchy bumps on my hands

by lisa6538, Jan 21, 2007 12:00AM
Four days ago my hands started itching (not unusal for me though), but it felt like a bite or something and I looked and there was a small bump that looked like a blister. Looking all over my hands they are all over. It's not like a rash, there's no redness except when I've scratched, the bumps aren't red, they are skin colored  - it just looks like little fever blisters or something. When they break they are just filled w/ clear fluid and stop itching. They seem to itch more when my hands are warm (my hands are ususally cold - I have raynauds) like while I'm watching tv all covered up.

Actually it started a few weeks ago w/ my big toe on
top.  Last summer I had something similar on the bottoms of my toes and the doc prescribed a cream thinking it was a fungus or something. After almost 2 mos they got better. I tried the cream on my toe this time and it stopped itching, but is still bumpy but looks like it's healing. When it got on my hands I thought OMG it's spreading. I went to see the doc yesterday (mine was off so I saw an associate) and she said that it
isn't fungal at all. She tested to see if it was scabies that was negative and called it something that I don't remember. She gave me samples of Apexicon Cream and it seems to stop the itching, but the bumps seem to be spreading still.

I am 40, female and just finished 6 mos of accutane two days ago.

Here is the help you were looking for.  I can't post the name of the cream but feel free to e-mail me. Hello, I just wanted to share what happened to me. About three years ago, I was taking a swimming fitness class. About two weeks later I got a tiny blister on the back of my heel, it itched like fire. Finally, after scraching in it it opened and a clear fluid came out and the itching stopped but a few days later i got more.  I thought it was a fungal infection from the showers or the swimming pool.  To make the story short, I got the blisters on my fingers and nothing and noone seemed to be able to help me.  "NO ONE IN USA"  THEY ARE THE ONES THAT SPREED THIS RASH.  "MONEY" INSURANCE,  ETC.  

FINALLY IN ONE OF MANY TRIPS THAT I DID AROUND THE WORLD I FOUND THE CURE.  

TRUST ME,  IT WORKS.  

ITS A CREAM,  THEY DON'T SELL IT IN THE US NOT THAT I KNOW OF.
OR AT LEAST THAT IS WHAT THEY SAID.

The doctors in america would tell you that is excema but is not they will give you all kind of stuff.  even steroids,  so later in your life might have cancer.  

if you trust me email me at t_blv***@****

This sounds very close to what I have and what the doctors told me.  I got the impresion that they didn't know what it was so they went with excema. Which I do not believe it is.
I would like to email you for this cream but your email doesn't show.

Please reply with your email address.

Thank you!

To: Hi All
I have exactly the same issue. It's so depressing. Spending all my time and money trying to work out what to do to make my hands feel better. They are covered in tiny blisters and itchy bumps. Steroid creams bring no relief. I am totally at a loss. I have never had skin problems in the past. I just want to scream HELP I need someone to HELP. I have tried eliminating foods, I wear cotton gloves etc. I have followed every piece of advice and nothing has worked.
