What Causes Red And Itchy Hand And Finger?
Hello. I woke up yesterday and my thumb on my left hand and my index finger on the right were red and itchy. Now today they are still red and itchy,but my index finger is now slightly swollen as a result of scratching it at night. It s not my whole fingers but its the lower patch. I was wondering if you could finite out what this is?

Hello,
I believe that can be related to allergies. Use ice compresses to reduce redness and take antihistamines such as Cetirizine for itching.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
