| hi, my dad has some bad hands. both his hands are red swollen and very itchy, his hands always swell up when he puts his hands in some cotton gloves so he sorta gets itchy when his hands get very wet (he's a carpenter) and i really want to help him |

Wow, I thought I would just google itchy/swollen fingers/Lupus and all these different things popped up.
I've had Lupus since I was 15yrs old so about 14yrs....sucks!
Anywho, I've had these tiny red bumps that seem to appear out of nowhere and for no apparent reason. sometimes it happens if I lift something heavy....like when I moved.
It usually last a coupld of days...though it seems longer, the itching drives me insane.
I never notice whether its summer or winter but think it happens year round but here and there.
I've mentioned it to my doctors but they seem to just ignore it. Last night my thumb started itching and this morning was swollen and a little purple....I never have tried to research since I know they go away but today I thought I would.
My issue with this as is with most of the side effects from Lupus is that it just disrupts my life, its annoying, cant do anything about it but just live with it....and noone ever understands!!!
Ahhhh, its nice to be able to vent with people that DO understand!  |

| well im 20yrs old and ive been having the same problem for the past three years. i am currently suffering from it at the moment. i went to see my doctor and he said and i quote "i dont know what it is but i know what its not, it is not an infection" wow and i still had to pay the co-payment for such great words of wisdom. what i have found to helps with the itching and swelling is soaking my hand in a mixture of raw oatmeal and cold water when it starts to itch or feel hot. sorry for any mistake but i currently have my right hand in this mixture and it really help with the pain. hope this helps. |

| The itchy hands that swell happens to me also. it usually happens when I'm shopping. There is this pain that I can't explain. My hands swell up so bad I can't bend them. The itch is unbearable.Sometimes it goes to my feet. I haven't seen a doctor about it yet because its not constant. Has anyone got a diagnosis for this?? |
