44 y/o male in pretty good health, at least I think so. Lately my fingers have become swollen, but not all of them. I've had my middle fingers do this and now it is both of my pinky fingers - at the same time. My palms are also itchy and swollen and painful to the touch. Itch is painful, it feels almost like a bee sting. It is primarily the first digits on my fingers. Sometimes my palms are totally itchy and have some sort of a knot inside that is both painful and relief(ful) to rub or scratch. Sometimes it is just a small patch on my palms and other times it's a larger area, but never the entire palm. My finger joints on the afflicted fingers is stiff and a little painful to bend, but I think that might be caused by the swelling. Also area around my finger nails is sometimes painful to the touch, especially this time, both pinky fingers are hurting. Help, please. Any suggestions??? I've been over every thing that I've eaten each time this has happened and I can't think of anything that would have caused this. I also do not use much of anything on my hands such as soap or moisturizers, but my hands are very clean, rinse them regularly in warm water.
Swollen, itchy, painful to the touch fingers and palms?
