Bumps on fingers: One possible explanation is Dyshidrosis, also known as dyshidrotic eczema or pompholyx. It is a skin condition in which very small, fluid-filled blisters appear on the palms of your hands and the sides of your fingers. The soles of your feet also can be affected.

Hand burn : With the entire finger being burned and it causing problems for this period of time it would be recommended that you see your primary doctor to have the hand examined for further management.

Question 6

blood pooling, both feet - outer along talus/tarsals. edema right foot/hand.  knuckles red or bluish, feet/hands hot/splotchy, big veins w/ activity?

Accepted Answer

May be acrocyanosis: Some of these  symptoms match acrocyanosis, which is a physiologic way that blood can cause pooling. The edema is not related . Cannot say why your hands are splotchy . Your evaluation may help clarify your medical situation.

Question 7

Accepted Answer

Unclear: I am not sure what knots are . If this is a infection such as warts or some other growths.  You have not mentioned how long you have had this. I suggest a derm consultation for evaluation as this suggestion to evaluate the situation. 
Best wishes.

Question 8

how can i cure my dark knuckles?

Accepted Answer

: First of all keep skin of your hands always moisturized. You can try Hydoxyurea  4% gel , also consult a Dermatologist. Observe if it has to do anything you. are handling often with your hands at work or Home.

Question 9

how bad is cracking knuckles and back?

Accepted Answer

Depends: It depends on who's doing it and why. If you're doing it as a nervous habit, then it's likely not doing you any good. If it's a do (or even a chiropractor) doing it to treat a specific problem, then it can be a good thing. Think of it like a pill. The right pill for the right thing can be good while the same pill for the wrong thing can be bad.

Question 10

how can i properly calcify my knuckles?

Accepted Answer

I don't understand: the question.  The bones of the knuckles are already calcified, calcification of anything else in the region would be abnormal.
