A very thin but often broad blister occurs
You end up with shallow skin colored open blister... Starts healing very fast but takes a long time to heal
I've checked psoriasis, excema sp ? Contact dermatitis and boils ...But none seem to fit that
The big thing is you get this crazy itch but very little there except very tiny painful point until you've rubbed alot and then big shallow blister
Also checked scabies. Don't think it fit... At one point I thought contact dermatitis did fit but not necessarily now
It comes and goes... I have a lot of allergies. I assume skin allergies too.. Bought a new ring recently but wear on other hand
Thanks in advance for any comments :)

Hello, cmhuskie.
Skin conditions can be challenging to diagnose without a physical examination, and even then, they sometimes require specialized testing to accurately identify.
Here are a few things you might consider:
-
Dyshidrotic Eczema (Dyshidrosis): This is a type of eczema that presents with small, intensely itchy blisters, often on the fingers, palms, and soles. The blisters eventually dry out and can leave the skin dry, cracked, and painful.
-
Herpetic Whitlow: This is a painful viral condition caused by the herpes virus. It affects the fingers or thumbs and can cause tingling, itching, and blisters.
-
Friction Blisters: Constant friction or irritation can cause blisters, though these are typically not associated with an intense itch.
-
Allergic Reaction: Since you mentioned allergies and a new ring, it's possible you're experiencing some allergic response, even if the ring is worn on another hand. Allergic reactions can sometimes manifest in ways that are not immediately obvious.
-
Infection: Sometimes, bacterial or fungal infections can cause symptoms similar to what you've described, especially if there's any break in the skin.
-
Other Dermatological Conditions: There are many skin conditions, some of which are rare or less commonly known, that could potentially fit your description.
Refrain from scratching as it can lead to potential infections or exacerbate the issue. Over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream might provide some temporary relief from itching, but it's essential to get a proper diagnosis to address the root cause effectively. Have you been at dermatologist yet?
