waterspots(waterblister) on leg and spreading to hands
I have waterspots(water blisters) on my left foot and it itch a lot, i am having this problem for an year of so, it keeps comming and going all the time. Now the small water blisters are also appearing on hands palms and side of the finger and itcing started on right foot as well, but no water blisters is appeared so far. I tried a lot of tubes and went to a lot of doctors but of no use. does anyone have an idea what it is? My wife also had started the same problem once when we got married, but her problem is gone away. but mine is still here and it keeps increasing, all the time. Does anyone know if it can be spread by having sexual relationship? This problem only occurs on bottom of foot and palms of my hand or on side of foot or fingers. But there no other things on other part of my body. Is it fungul infection or is it allergy or what?
Sorry for the late reply Doctor, i was on treatment and very busy with my work. As you know we technical people have each day a long day.
Regarding the quiz, i guess not all but 60% of the questions, answers are yes in my case. I would also like to add some more into the questions, like when ever something like this happend to me, for example if i got a cold for few days and get it again after a month or two, it will be something suspecious for me, i will not go with teh factor that because weather keep changing, but i will think itmight be some big disease. Is there anything that can increase the chance of this Skin illness? and please tell me what should i do to keep my skin healthy.
Thank You

I can't speak to the medical diagnosis or specific treatment. It sounds like stress may be making whatever it is worse. Allergies are very much affected by emotional triggering, fungal problems less so. For more on this side of things go to the Skin Deep site at http://grossbart.com.
Since you have been checked out medically it is very unlikely to be any big disease.

I suggest that you continue to pursue conventional medical diagnosis and treatment but also consider a stress/emotional side of the problem. Try the quiz from the Skin Deep site http://grossbart.com below to do that:
Quick Quiz
Rather than dividing illness into "emotional" or "psychosomatic" and "physical, " I think of emotions as a factor in all skin problems. Emotional difficulties may be the sole cause of few symptoms but they play a role, major or minor, in the flare-ups of many, perhaps most. Emotional factors sometimes cause, and frequently can reduce or intensify, itching and pain even when the physical disease itself remains unchanged. All skin problems have emotional impact, regardless of cause.
How important is the emotional factor in your illness? The more of these questions you answer yes, the more significant the factor.
Ask yourself:
1. Do your symptoms get worse--or better--with emotional turmoil?
2. Is your condition more stubborn, severe, or recurrent than your doctor expects?
3. Are usually effective treatments not working for you?
4. Do most treatments work but not for long?
5. Is each disappearing symptom quickly replaced with another?
6. Do your symptoms get better or worse in a very erratic, seemingly nonsensical way?
7. Do you see striking ups and downs in your symptoms with changes in your social environment: vacations, hospitalizations, business trips, or the comings of family members or bosses?
8. Do people find you strikingly stoic, unruffled, or computer like in the face of stressful life events?
9. Is your level of distress and concern about the problem strikingly high or conspicuously absent?
10. Is your skin worse in the morning, suggesting that you rub or scratch unintentionally at night?
11. Do you have trouble following your health care provider's instructions?
12. Do you do things you know will hurt your skin, such as squeezing pimples or overexposing yourself to sunlight?
13. Do you feel excessively dependent on your dermatologist or excessively angry with him or her? (Even if the faults are real, are you overreacting?)
14. Does it seem that others notice improvements in your skin before you do? Is it hard for you to acknowledge when your skin has improved?
The more of these questions you answered positively, the more likely a candidate you are for the Skin Deep program, but even if most or all of these questions don't apply to you, this psychological approach will offer three important kinds of help:
1. Exercises to help you focus on the hidden role of your emotions in the disease itself. Are they causing, triggering, or heightening outbreaks? You'll learn to know yourself and use this knowledge to make your skin better.
2. Techniques to reduce itching, scratching, burning, and pain,regardless of their source.
3. A systematic method to reduce the emotional impact of your illness so you can cope better and suffer less while your skin improves.

They said it is not fungul it might be alergy but nothing related to blood or something. These are the symptoms i explained in last forum. I am not sure what to do. I went to a doctor today as well, and did fungus test but no fungus found. Doctor gave me some anti fungus and alergic tablets and asked me to use it and come back after 5 days.
he gave me betazol-G cream to use it twice a day.
