small itchy water bumps
My family and I have recently been breakin out with little red water blisters on our feet, hands, and legs. They only seem to itch at night, or when we take a hot shower. They dont seem to bother us durning the day. They also dont seem to b infected at all. I have went to the doctor and at first he said that it was scabies. He gave us some cream to put on us and explain to me how to clean up behind it. WELL...... here we r again still breaking out wit the samething again. So can u please maybe help me shed a little light on this. Thank you!

Hello,
It can be due to pompholyx but what is surprising is that it is affecting all family members and the condition is looking like scabies skin. The first stage is acute and presents as itchy blisters on the hands, fingers and toes. Then the chronic stage shows more peeling, cracking, or crusting. Then the skin heals up, or the blistering may start again. The exact cause is not known and excessive sweating can be one of the reasons.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your dermatologist. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.

yes yes they are! I went yesterday and bought some phisoderm body soap. That has seemed to sooth the itching. Also started applying an extra dry skin lotion. That has seem to help it also. Thats where we r right now with it. I'm praying that this works and gets rid of it. Oh and also i washed all bedding in hot water. Just n case it is a fungus the hot water should kill the fungus! R so I was told by a dr.!!!! I hope this helps u as well as it is helping my fly. and I.
