I've been having tiny water blisters that pops out of different fingers randomly. Initially when the itch starts, you can't really see them. Then after about 15 minutes or so, a small water blister surfaces.
The worst I've had was on my left thumb. On the first section of the thumb itself, there were more than 10 clustered blisters just beneath the skin surface. I could see all of them beneath it, just that it didn't have the chance to pop out of the skin as blisters. Gosh! So itchy and disgusting to look at.
Went to the doctor yesterday.
W: Doc, are these symptoms of hand, foot and mouth disease?
Doc: Do you have fever?
W: No
Doc: Do you feel tired or sick?
W: No
Doc: Did you have lost of appetite?
W: No, my appetite is very good.
Doc: It's not hand, foot and mouth. If an adult gets it, you won't be looking so fine. It's very serious when an adult gets it, even more serious than children. It's a stress rash. A type of eczema causd by stress. Are you very stress?
W: I was for the last few months but I'm fine now.
Doc: When your body undergo stress, even though the stress period is over, your body is still in the stress mode. It will take a while for your body to adjust back. It is now going up and down. Take leave, go away to a place where there's no shopping, no network, just sleep.
W: Very hard la.
Doc: You have to. Your body is stressed.
