New Development-blisters

[lindalee]

Haven't had this in years. Is anyone dealing with this? It is not oozing - has a yellowish tint. Did have a few potatoes(which I have been eliminating on my no nightshade diet) and ate semi-sweet chocolate in the trail mix. Any suggestions? Thanks, LindaLee

I have the same thing on my right hand. If I get glutened, it breaks out in blisters, but otherwise it's just kinda dry. Dermatologist thinks it's DH, but couldn't biopsy because of location. It itches like CRAZY when I get glutened.

I have it on my right index finger--I get glutened, and it itches badly for a few days.

How long have you had it? Mine just happened- no itch(thank goodness). I put neosporum on it. I feel like mine was brought on by stress. Do you have ridges on your fingernails? LindaLee

Before I went gluten-free, I had vertical ridges in my fingernails, and a horizontal dip in both thumbnails. All that is gone now (after a year gluten-free) The finger blister comes and goes--I had it frequently before. I was sick this past weekend--I may have been glutened thru CC, and it flared up again. Mine definately itches.

They say the ridges mean not absorbing nutrients. I had the itching blisters before and my finger got so swollen I had to have my ring cut off. Do you have a cat? After my stressful traffic trip back home, I cleaned out the litter box. I'm careful when I do that, but you never know. LL

The not absorbing nutrients would make sense because I was also anemic then. I do have a cat, but I don't think that the litter had anything to do with the blister in my case--maybe you are allergic also?

It's dyshidrotic eczema. I've had it for ten years. It goes away as long as I stay away from things I am allergic to. You might want to get some allergy testing done.

It can also effect the finger nails after years of having it. It has mine. It makes them bumpy and ridgey. Diagnosing skin problems is tricky. That's why talking to your doctor about it is very important. Specifically a dermatologist.

The yellow tint is going away and healing- looks like a scab now. ????? LL
