Q: Bumps On My Fingers In the Summer
asked by: Cassandra199 on June 13th, 2005

I get these small bumps on my fingers, mainly my index fingers, every spring/summer when it gets warm out. It's ilke a rash but they are not red and they sort of cluster together. They don't itch, or really change at all except I get more of them. They only come out when it gets warm again so it can't be an alergic reaction, and it doesn't look like heat rash. It looks like a little colony of tiny wart-like bumps that spread down the lengths of my fingers and only my fingers. I can't figure it out. Does anyone have any ideas?

I Get Them Too!
I get them too!..

I know what you mean, and there no harm. I get them on my feet, too, and they're just a gather of moisture from the air is all. Or so my doctor tells me.

Just don't pick on them, put baby powder on them, and let them be- they're completely harmless :d

Me too!
I have a little mass of them on the inside of my middle finger, 3 on my index, and one on my thumb. I was worried that they were warts because I've never had warts before.

Baby Powder
I read this post, saw the comment about baby powder, tried it, and the next day the bumps were practically gone. This has been a problem of mine for the last few summers and I never knew how easy it would be to solve. Thanks.

possibly pompholyx ?
This is so strange! I have had the same type of (clusters of) bumps for the last two weeks or so on the right side my left index finger and they recently spread to my thumb and middle fingers at first I thought it was a bug bite because it started out as a cluster of about five bumps that made a circle and was sparatically itchy but It did'nt have the characteristics of any of the bites I had ever seen or researched. so I did some more research and found out that it is probly some form of pompholyx. a skin condition that has these exact characteristics. I hav'nt been to a doctor to confirm this because I don't see the need but I hope this helps somebody!

Hay Fever...?
I saw bumps on my fingers for the first time tonight and saw this link. Dosnt hurt but they are almost on all of my fingers on my right hand. I was wondering if this could have something to do with my allergies because I have hay fever allergy. Also it has been very hot here these past two weeks. Do any of you have some allergies?

I had this exact thing on my right index finger for atleast 10 years and counting..I think I had it the worst from what I hear from the rest of you guys. I had some summers in late July or August and these little bumps formed like transformer and grew into a big bump and looked like a big Ring Worm.

Definately going to try this baby powder treatment. Sad thing is I had doctors that had no idea what this was!
