clear blisters on hands

[Johnny86]

over the past couple of days i have been getting these blisters, that when they are popped this clear liquid comes out. These blisters are on the palm of my hand. They are very small and in a group. some are single and others are packed together. there only on my hands not on any other part of my body. If anyone knows of has experience this before plz a comment it would be greatly appriciated. Ive never had tihs before in my life

I have had these little blisters my whole life.  My grandmother had it, my kids have it.  I have a really bad summer about every 6 to 7 years where it gets super bad and my hands peel 4 or 5 times that year.  No doctor has ever been able to figure it out.  No doctor has ever given me anything that works well. It is worst at the beginning of warm weather and the first part of summer.  I have found that using the stringent soak Domboro dries the blisters up (and does not burn) and then use Cortizone 10 Eczema lotion to remoisturize.  Both of these can be obtained at the pharmacy, no prescription needed.  Cold water helps with the itching, hot water makes it worse.  This is what I have found works best after spending a lifetime of going to doctors for it.  They even had me on tranquilizers at age 6 trying to make it better.  I'm 55 now. I do not take any prescription medicines. Hope this helps someone.

I have the tiny blisters to. I just assumed it was apart of my Hydradenitis or HS. But my palm itches just before they break out. Now wondering it it's psoriasis??

Will water blisters pop on their own

[sissylove546]

i have the same thing with my hands. its called eczema. try to avoid lotions that might irritate it and other things. use vaseline or petrolium jelly twice a day to help the itching. go to dermantologists if u have not already. they may perscribe u a oitment for it. srry if my spelling is bad btw. if u have already found a way to get rid of it please let me know it would be greatly appreciated. just email me if u read this. my email is ***@****. thank you.

SOY Allergy & tiny blisters.

I stopped soy 3 years ago and stopped having tiny blister cluster attacks on my fingers. No more weepy itchiness. Soy is in everything. I can get away with soy bean oil and soy lecithin in small amounts, but soy sauce/soybeans/chinese soy products are weeks of healing and itching 24 hours later--always the next day.. Had to switch from chinese to vietnamese (fish sauce) dining. Bread products were the worst, but that could be my wheat issues. Soy is also in many green detergents. Zyrtec helps me with everything except these tiny blisters. Blisters and itchiness always seem to pop up near areas of injury--cuts and my c-section scar --keloids. Good luck

My dr said it was dermititis where I was washing my hands too much and that my skin was getting thin at my at age (52).  she prescribed Halobetasol Propionate Ointment...  you put it on your hands twice a day for two weeks and it dries the blisters up. I have been dealing with this off and on for 2 years since I started helping potty train my grandkids, she said I was drying out my skin and suggested that I use Ivory soap to wash with and Aveeno that has the Eczema in it to use after washing my hands.

shaxi liangcha - It is a herbal tea that takes away the blisters on my hands.  I went to a Asian Pharmacy and they gave me this bag.  It looks like bark when you open it up.  You simmer the bark and drain it to drink the tea.  You will notice the blisters clearing up within 24 hours.   I have gone online and you can buy this tea online as well..  just type in the first 2 words on this comment. When the blisters start to come back after a couple of months i just make the tea again and it takes them away.   It works for me, I hope it works for everyone else to.. those little blisters were driving me crazy!!!

Has anyone looked into Pachyonycia Congenita (PC)?  There are several different types of PC with some having blisters, calluses, and thick yellowish nails but some may only exhibit one, two or more symptoms.  My daughter has had this since birth but at that time was only yellow nails.  Later, once she started walking started to get the blistering and calluses which are both very painful.  www.pachyonychia.org, also know as PC Project,  is the only place in the world that researches this disease.  The people here are the best in the world and care deeply about the patients and also offer free DNA testing to confirm diagnosis if PC is suspected.  I believe there are around 600 confirmed patients world wide that are registered with the PC project.  Don't know if this is what effects your son or not but maybe worth looking in to.  If you would like email me, ***@****

I have it on my hands and feet, it's basically an athlete's foot infection and will go with routine treatment. I use a pharmacy anti fungal cream, use it every time you wash your hands, and an anti fungal ointment every night before bed hands and feet - this is most effective, I find Daktarin ointment the best. Clean the dead skin off your feet and wash your feet completely every day, and it will go. It doesn't spread except through repeated intimate contact but is not infectious if treated properly otherwise it would be on your face but needs about a year of solid treatment (look for the little white moons a the base of your nail beds). Most people have some form of fungal infection, it's extremely common, but most don't know it, and ps, don't eat mushrooms until it's gone.

I started getting tiny, itchy blisters about 2 months after having surgery on the palm if my hand. That was more than 2 years ago. The symptoms come and go and I have not figured out what now triggers them.

Hey guys,
I developed dyshidrotic eczema a year and a half ago. After many dr visits and sleepless painful nights, having tried everything I could think of I was sent to a dermatologist who actually knew how to cure it!
I need to share this with you. There is a cure! Forget all the other stuff. The answer is, Ciclosporine Actavis. You start on a high dose about 350 mg and gradually reduce it under the Dr's supervision. After 11 months now I am down to 175 mg per day. It's a miracle! I was tormented as I'm sure you all are but please believe me that this works. Go to a dermatologist and tell them this. I should be off the tablets completely very soon she said.
Good luck! T

Hi,
I am 28 from Singapore and i have had these blisters under skin for abt 4 years now. Fortunately, they only appear on my thumb and on the area between my thumb and second finger. Occasionally, one or two will appear on other fingers or toes but they go away. I have seen the doctor before and while they have given me steroid creams, they don't work. Steroids thin the skin but do not cure. I think many doctors don't know the condition very well but i did my own research and found out that it is called Dyshidrosis. And i have also ruled out possible causes and believe that mine flares up due to stress from work... Especially when i m trying to meet deadlines. I don't know why it only appeared four years ago and not earlier though... Maybe my immune system weakened as i grew older.

I used to scratch them and pop the bubbles but it only causes more bubbles to appear and stressed me out even more. Currently, i have learnt to control the condition. Hope this helps anyone here with this problem.

1) never pop them. No matter how itchy... Scratching may give you a temporary relief but it worsens the condition. I try to focus on other things when it is extremely itchy... Watch tv, exercise... Going out for a stroll at the park helps... Even shopping...

2) stay positive. Stop thinking abt curing it. I have read that the condition can be chronic... So if i m stuck with it i will learn to live with it. I also tell myself that work is just work... I try to worry less.

3) eat multivitamins. I didnt believe in supplements but ever since i took them my condition stabilised so much that nowadays the bubbles rarely appear.

4) i use Elomet cream (mometasone furoate) from Schering-Plough Corporation. I dont know if this cream is really effective or whether my condition stabilised due to a combination of factors. I put a thin layer on the skin when bubbles appear. If there is broken skin (after i scratched really bad) i put the cream and a plaster over to help contain the cream in that the area. I did this the last time when my condition was really bad and now my skin has healed.

5) eat fruits. I drink water with lemon slices.

6) keep the home clean. Change bedsheets once a week if possible. Change bath towels daily.

7) use hand creams to keep skin moisturised.. Esp if u work in air con rooms. I use Balneum Intensiv Lotion.

I think the best method for me was to stop obsessing over the bubbles. The more i looked at them the more stressed i felt. But nowadays i just ignore them and try to focus on what i have to do. I have accepted that i need to live with it... and staying positive helps.

You can contact me at ***@****.. I dont know how i can help.. But yea... Everyone stay positive and happy.

Hey, I had the same thing for months too... No dr or cream helped... It's a kind of bacteria and how I rid myself completely was I rubbed fresh cucumber over my hands a few times a day ... Just cut a piece off and rubbed away.. Problem was solved in about 4 days... Hands went dry for a few days while doing it... But back to normal after a week. I think something in the cucumber neutralises the bacteria...'cucumber cost a few bucks so nothing to loose trying . Good luck

I have had the same exact problem for a long time. I thought it was from my job.  I deliver the mail and thought I was bumping my hands all the time. Well after several doctors, I finally got a good answer. Please take a moment and look at this picture...see if this is what your hands look like. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Pseudoporphyria.JPG      

I was diagnosed with Porphyria Cutanea Tarda.....and I have been taking a lot of Naproxen due to a neck injury, but there are several causes and triggers.  I really hope this helps.

lishgurll and mhope9009, It is eczema, I'm 48, brittle diabetic and have had this problem for 11 yrs.  I finally got an appointment with a dermo. while having an outbreak.  It is caused from many factors . Yes, one an auto immune disease can cause the.  Fibro, diabetes, kidney, thyroid any of these can be the root cause and yes STRESS. However, the main cause is chemical use.  There are a lot of hormones in everyday use of chemicals.  Laundry soap, dish soap, shampoos and conditioners.  

My doctor put me on a steroid crème 2x a day with vasoline over the top so that it stayed in the skin.  Followed up with a prescribition Lotion.  This seems to work.  It isn't a cure for there is no cure but it helps with the flare up.  Anyone taking inhalers it seems to be worse in.  As asthma patients seem to have the worse problems with this.

My doctor told me to use this method sparingly as this is the only way to ease the outbreaks and to not let my body become immune to the treatment.  Use NON perfumed lotions, Gold Bond seems to have the best for everyday use.  When cleaning wear rubber gloves, this includes dusting as all of these chemicals remove the moisture from you hands.  Also, when washing your hair(the thing most people never think about because it is an everyday thing to stay clean) use gloves.  Dove moisturizing soap is what the DR. told me to use and it works.  Also, water softener seem to dry the hands out as well.
