How to get rid of a fluid-filled bump on the finger?

Question

Hello doctor,

I got a bump on my finger filled with pure white liquid, and it does not look like any infection. My body is very hot, and if I check the temperature, it is showing normal. Why?

Answer 1

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern. Suppose it is a single lesion with no other lesions. In that case, it is more likely pompholyx (dyshidrotic eczema), a kind of vesicular eczema, which can sometimes present like this and not diffuse. Fever with multiple such lesions and redness can be varicella. But if it is only a single lesion without associated local or systemic symptoms, better to observe for some time. Is it itchy, or do you have any other symptoms?
