Tiny blister-like bubbles between the fingers?!


Question: I've noticed that I have a couple (2-3) small, slightly itchy blisters between two of my fingers. Very tiny, about the size of a small pimple, and clear. What exactly are these?

Thanks.

I experience the same the same tiny, ichy blisters btw. fingers and will run up the finger if I scratch too much. Mine are due to food related allergies, but not from eating them. They typically erupt when I handle certain foods such as peeling potatoes, melons, tomatoes and other fruits & veggies. Reaction varies depending on the amount of contact on bare skin. My solution is frequent hand washing and being aware of what causes the worst reaction. Then get someone else to peel the spuds! (or wear gloves)

If they spread, get checked for scabies. I know it's gross, but they often present between the fingers. If that's what it is, it will spread.

Possibly herpes, definitly get that checked out... . . .

Most likely a contact dermatitis... like poison ivy. Could be caused by soaps, plants, lotion, or just about anything. Yes, herpes and scabies are possible but less likely. Scabies often leaves little red tracks... herpes whitlow, pretty uncommon. Impetigo, a bacterial infection is possible... but I'd bet on an allergic response to something, especially with the itchyness.
