Having Blisters On Palm And Fingers With Clear Fluid. After Popping The Skin Starts To Peel. What Is The Remedy?

default
Posted on Mon, 6 Jan 2014
Question: I am trying to figure it what is going on with my hands. I am a 25 year old male. For as long as I can remember, I've had peeling hands. Not all the time, however several times a year my palms/ fingers peel really bad. The last couple of years I have noticed that I get tiny clear blisters on the palms/ fingers of my hands. The fluid inside of the blisters is clear, and once they pop, my hands peel. It does not itch, and it does not appear to be a rash. It's not red like a rash, but just the normal color of my skin. My fingertips are a little pink due to so much skin peeling away, and they are tender. The current condition I have right now has been going on for approximately two weeks. I've been putting lotion on them every single day twice a day since. I am not doing anything different (using new soap, etc.) Everything is the same. I looked on line and it looks similar to Dyshidrosis, however not like the severe pictures that I have seen. I have taken photos of my hands for you to see, if there is any way I can get them to you. Thank you for your help.
