What Causes Itchy Red Bumps In The Fingers And Swelling In The Hands?
I need info on what seems to be a fungal infestation on my hands. It started out with small, itchy red bumps on my fingers and now there is some swelling in both hands. Also, there are patchy spots where the skin is peeling. Do you have any info on this?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I feel that there may be some internal cause of generalized itching. Consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. Internal cause like anemia, diabetes, thyroid dysfunction, liver diseases, blood diseases or some other may be found out after thorough examination and investigations.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
