How To Treat Itching Sensation And Fluid Blisters On Fingers?

I get these small water filled blisters on my fingers after I work on parts at work for a long time.. like glueing with a large glue gun. I thought it might be from squeezing on the trigger for many days in a row.. my fingers itch very bad.. they will swell and fill with fluid and finally they will dry up and the skin will peel off and new skin will come.. but they get very painful.

Hi

Your symptoms are suggestive of Pompholyx or dyshidrotic eczema.

This is a type of eczema that causes tiny blisters in fingers, palms and rarely in soles of the feet.

This condition can occur more commonly in winter when the skin is very dry due to loss of moisture.

This is a form of dermatitis or inflammation of the skin that occurs due to dryness of skin.Apply generous amount of moisturiser everyday over the affected area. Repeat once again before going to bed.The symptoms will reduce. In case severe itching,mild steroid cream can be used.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards
