Finger tips
4 Answers
Every so often I get what like tiny bubbles on my fingertips, they look white and are slightly tender but not painful. After a couple of days the skin hardens and cracks, then falls away. Again the exposed skin is tender but not painful, and the skin returns to normal quite quickly. Typically, this is never happening when I visit the GP, but doesn't seem to justify a special visit. I wondered if it indicated some vitamin deficiency or the like, or might be related to hitting a computer keyboard too much. Any ideas gratefully received. Thanks guys.

It was due to the paper drying my hands out too much (sort of). Came in the form of lots of little white raised spots on the palms of my hands which itched like hell and were quite tender. The doc gave me all sorts for it, steroid creams and such, but the only thing that helped was keeping my hands creamed up with aqueous cream (and keeping away from the files, good excuse).
