Question 1

good day please im having a skin rash which itches turning out to be wounds that heal over my body especially my laps and web fingers what do i do??

Accepted Answer

Eval: These lesions would likely need to be examined and more history obtained  to be able to provide you with useful input about the diagnosis or possible treatment.

Question 2

i have a rash and cuts where my finger bends and in the web with pus, the skin is swollen purple and red. i have used hydrocortisone and neoposrin?

Accepted Answer

Skin rash/pus Rx: It sounds like topical antibacterials and cortisone aren't working. Get evaluated shortly because you likely will need an oral antibiotic to treat the infection.

Question 3

cut webbing between thumb and finger? any important nerves there?

Accepted Answer

Yes: There are important nerves, arteries, and veins there. Plus muscles to control the fingers. Don't do it.

Question 4

puncture wound to the finger webbing while cutting food. what should i do? made it bleed myself, then put gauze between fingers.

Accepted Answer

Be seen: Any puncture wound can be serious.  Be seen by your physician to determine if you need antibiotics, stitches, or a tetanus booster.

Question 5

how much time will a cut on the webbing of my index finger and thumb take to heal?

Accepted Answer

Depends on the: size depth and weather it was stitched and how much you are using the hand.

Question 6

how should i wrap up the herpetic whitlow on my finger? it is hard to completely cover the blister on the webbing between my finger

Accepted Answer

Bandaid:  and tape maybe best. A glove might also be helpful.  Also taking an antiviral medication to help heal faster is an option.

Question 7

pain between index and middle finger in tissue under webbing not located at the joint. concentrated in that spot with no prior symptoms.

Accepted Answer

Need more info like : Any swelling, discoloration, any hair embedded there, anything could be squeezed from the site; nature of pain....
Is it constant /not? Anything or any activity brings it on? Is it sharp/dull, etc. How long has it been going on for?
Without an exam it'll be difficult to make a dx. In some hairdressers, hair gets embedded into a scratch in the web, causing an inflammatory reaction.
See an orthopod.

Question 8

yesterday, i had an achy pain under the webbing between my middle& index finger.  later, it moved up to the middle index knuckle.  today, in my palm?

Accepted Answer

Musculoskeletal pain: If there was no recent trauma to your hand... The pain could be tendon irritation, joint soreness of your knuckles.  In general over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medicines could be helpful. But in light of kidney disease, tylenol (acetaminophen) / Acetaminophen will be the better choice.  Good luck  & feel better.

Question 9

i have small bumps along my fingers filled with clear fluid. had them on the webbing too & they're itchy.  some on my face-though it could be acne.

Accepted Answer

Maybe dyshydrotic ec: Eczema.  Needs a potent steroid and gloves. Go see your local dermatologist. That is probably what it is from your description.

Question 10

i got a small but somewhat deep cut on the webbing between my thumb and pointer finger and my hand is kinda numb and i can't move my fingers very well?

Accepted Answer

Damaged hand: You seem to have damaged the nerves and tendons in your hand. I would see a hand orthopedist ASAP. He may have to do some tendon transplants depending upon the extent of the damage that you have sustained. You can check out HSS in NYC or Columbia.
