Hello doctor, I have dark spots on my fingers that I have noticed this month only. It seems to be dry skin and this area on my fingers look bruised, as if they were left in the cold and looks almost purplish. In the past I did have tiny bumps that were itchy on the sides of my fingers but, they are not there any longer. I am concerned as I do not want this to spread. I am worried that it may be due to me having chronic fatigue syndrome. They do not hurt at all but, do look like bruising. What would this be and how to treat?
Hi. There are two probabilities of your condition, one is allergic contact dermatitis and the other is pompholyx which is also known as dyshidrotic eczema. Since you have not mentioned your age, complaint, onset and progression of these bumps in details, I am unable to comment anything with a solid base. Meanwhile use Clobetasol cream twice daily for 20 days (strictly 20 days) and review after that. Revert back to a dermatologist online for further follow up -->
