Just last week I noticed little pimples on
the side of my right index finger. Now
more are forming on the side of my thumb
on the other hand. My skin is rough in
those areas. White clear puss comes out
when I squeeze them. My mom suggested
Scabies but they don't itch yet so it
isn't red. I had little red dots on my
toes a couple of months ago, but they went
away. I don't know what this is? Any
ideas?

The first thing that comes to mind is a
type of psoriasis however the area is
ususally red. Go see a dermatologist. It
may be a staph infection or some other
type of infection. Proper treatment should
be given.

How many pimples? I had that happen to me
also only it was just a few, but always on
my hands. I wash my hands alot and was
usually washing with dishwashing soap.
When I stopped using that and switched to
a more gentle hand soap I stopped getting
the pimples and haven't had it happen in
years.

This probably does not relate to you, but
I have mitral valve prolapse, and that is
one of the symptoms. I am sure it is just
psoriasis, or a condition similiar to that
and will go away in time. Mine are TINY
red bumps, no pus, just kind of fluid
filled that come and go. Are you on any
kind of medication, that could also be
causing the problems. Try using
antibacterial lotions - that could help
the condition.

I get the same thing. Clear blisters on
my hands that don't bother me at all other
than just being there. Sometimes I get
larger ones on the bottom of my feet, and
they are annoying.
Only in the summertime, when it gets warm,
for the past four years or so. I think
it's an allergy. I've been to the
dermatologist and she thought the same.
