For six months now I have had something incomprehensible between the fingers of my hand. It looks like this: small bubbles, if you press, liquid spills out, it itches very much. then they dry out and crusts form. then they come out again. The size does not increase, everything seems to be in one place. in this place the skin is red. At first I thought it was an allergy to washing powder, but ordinary ointments did not help me. I applied Fluorocort, a week passed, I stopped applying it, and then these “pimples” appeared again...

I had this too. I think it's called eczema. I started from Ariel washing powder. The most important thing is to get your hands wet less. It is better to wash dishes with gloves. And in general, keep your hands away from any chemicals. And be sure to go to a dermatologist. He appoint hormonal ointments, they will help. Yes, Vitaon also helped me with itching. This is an oil in a bottle, sold in pharmacies.

A swelling appears on the lip, followed by many tiny blisters filled with liquid. At this point (and until recovery) you will have to apply a special ointment every 3-4 hours. Then the bubbles begin to burst, and a lot of viruses are released with the liquid. This is the most contagious period for others. So the ointment should be applied only with cotton swabs, and not with your finger. After the procedure, you must wash your hands thoroughly with soap. The blisters leave ulcers that become covered with crusts. The moment is very unpleasant: the sores are very itchy. The main thing is not to knock them off! An infection can get into the wounds, and the healing process will be delayed. Cold lotions will help reduce itching. For this you can use...

Yes, it is probably impossible to cure herpes completely; it can only be systematically treated with ointments. To smaller child if he was sick, you need to harden him as much as possible and feed him vitamins, take care of hygiene and try not to overcool him. Well, if he gets sick, then the sooner you start applying ointment, the less visible the manifestations of this sore will be, and the faster it will go away.

This happens to me myself, calcium glycerophosphate helps a lot. It happens not from stress, but from a violation of the water-salt balance, good luck

Most similar to dyshidrosis, mine has had it for some time after severe stress or illness appeared. It was removed with an antihistamine, better earlier, otherwise the skin would dry out and crack. Cracks are more difficult to treat.
And so the bubbles can be a manifestation of chickenpox and scarlet fever, but there are more other symptoms

Girls, hello everyone! We've had burns on our finger for five days now. This is expressed in the form of two blisters - one no more than a centimeter in size, the other 3-4 mm. She did not pierce, she applied aseptic dressings, and sometimes placed argosulfan ointment under the dressing. The blisters don't want to burst. True, today the large blister looks deflated, but there is still fluid there and the blister is in place. It seemed to me that the blister lasted for a maximum of 2-3 days and then burst. The child doesn't care...

Apart from how to hold on, there is nothing more to advise you. It’s just some kind of nightmare in our medicine: it is clear that the decision was made for a reason, but the Soviet perception of the world does not allow our medical staff to treat their patients like human beings. Strength and health to you!

Part 5. Observation
They finally transfer it, it’s almost 10 pm. And then something awaits me that completely and irrevocably knocked me down. Because There are no places, I am assigned to a 4-bed ward, there are 3 other mothers and they have children. With the recommendation of feeding on demand. The medications stop working and it dawns on me that at 6 am the children will be delivered to them! And they will be here all the time. I didn't sleep that night from stress. The next day at 6 am we got up and brought the children. And all hell broke loose. They cry, I have a child, I can’t stand a child’s crying, I have a reflex. But I don't have a baby. I'm slowly losing my mind. I crawl out into the corridor, there is a sofa opposite the staff room. And I'm sitting there. From 6 am to almost 10 pm. I can’t answer calls, it’s terribly difficult for me, and I don’t even answer all SMS messages. It seemed to me that everything was over. Did I know that such blood pressure exists?
Evening, the doctor appears, I ask if there is even the slightest possibility of transferring me to another ward? I agree to a commercial one, I can’t hear or see babies. It’s a commercial double and there’s already a mother and child lying there. Nothing will change for me, except that I will still pay money for it. Despair, that's what I feel.
During the day, someone from the medical staff comes, they first deliver questionnaires (I wasn’t there, I was sitting on the sofa), and then they bring “gifts”. It’s enough for me to say that I don’t need it. The question "why" follows. I don’t know how I was able to say these words, I don’t have a baby. And it was the last straw. I can't control myself anymore, I'm crying. They apologize to me, but I know that they are not to blame... and these mothers are not to blame that I am among them, no one is to blame that this happened, but this does not make me feel any better. I’m going to the post, I ask you to give me valerian. The girl at the post sympathizes with me, but they don’t have valerian. There is something heartfelt. Corvalol or something like that. Gives out a bubble. I ask how much to drip. 10-20 drops. Nearby is an elderly lady, a children's nurse. He looks at me and says that at least 30 drops and it’s not a fact that it will help. I drip and drink. Rubbish. It doesn't get any easier. I take the bottle and sit further under the staff room. I’m scared to go into the room, but this is no longer necessary, on the second day the babies scream almost continuously, day and night, loudly, you can hear it perfectly in the corridor. I don't remember if I ever slept for more than an hour.
I have a goal - to live to 3 days. Then my husband will take me away from here. And I'm waiting.
I have an email. I have a book with me, I play solitaire, I can do it. But to assemble the simplest Sudoku - no. I stared at the numbers for an hour before I was able to put it all together. The brain doesn't work. I take handfuls of pills, naturally. There are a lot of appointments, their mind is empty. Lethargy. Apparently only thanks to this, I switch off for half an hour and manage to get a break in the form of sleep.
And finally it's Thursday. I was discharged, they didn’t say anything pleasant during the ultrasound, but they found no reason to detain me, they gave me recommendations for further treatment and I went home. While I was being taken out of the department (the maternity hospital was undergoing renovations), I listened to an apology speech; they were undergoing renovations; unfortunately, they couldn’t offer me another place. I understand everything, everything, but my mind protests.
What else should I add? Medicines for long-term abortion are paid. This is the only thing I paid for. The money is quite reasonable. They asked to pay upon checkout, but because... the doctor was very busy, I had to pay before my husband arrived, it’s good that I still took with me the amount that was announced to me in advance. But there was nothing left to thank the doctor with. Initially, I was told that payment would be made at the end, upon discharge, and my husband could bring it, so I didn’t need to take money with me. Well, it turned out as it happened.
Now I am at home, the treatment will continue for quite some time. My reaction speed is minimal, I feel very sleepy and generally switch off often.
This is life, this is experience. Usually people don’t know what to say, they tried to support me with the words that “God does not give greater trials than a person can withstand.” Well, I’m almost reinforced concrete, I’ve already had a lot of bitter losses in my life, but even concrete cracks and collapses. I have already started to crack and I know it. Let's treat the nerves now...

What to do. In consultation with the doctor, antihistamines are used. It is useful to give a cleansing enema. Redness is treated with powder. Molluscum contagiosum What it looks like. First, one pink nodule of acne forms on the body. Then the rash grows - on the face, neck and arms. The number of bubbles depends on the state of the child’s immunity. The rashes do not itch or hurt. If you crush the nodule with tweezers, a grainy white mass will come out. What to do. The doctor cauterizes the site where the nodules are removed with an iodine solution. Painkillers are sometimes used. In some cases, the nodules disappear on their own. Scarlet fever What does it look like? It begins acutely - with a sore throat and increased temperature...
...Rubella What it looks like. Small pale pink spots spread simultaneously throughout the body, but are most abundant on the face, chest and back. They disappear on their own within a few days. What to do. Prescribe bed rest, plenty of fluids and antipyretic drugs if the temperature is above 38°C. Scabies What it looks like. Small pimples covered with crusts are localized on the stomach, between the fingers, on the wrists and the back of the hands, in armpits and on the feet. Often small dots are arranged in pairs or threes and then form “myceliums”, which subsequently look red and swollen. Constant itching intensifies in the evening and at night. What to do.

Allergies don’t always arise to new foods; my nephew has a terrible rash to dairy, but at first it didn’t show up, he ate porridge with milk - everything was fine, but then. Once he feeds on the same porridge, he has spots all over his face, tears and snot flow, apparently there is an accumulation in the body...

A child (3.9) in the group is in quarantine due to chickenpox:(. Or:)? It’s interesting whether we’ll get sick or not, because... I'm not sure what we got sick with at 4 months. There was a rash (face, arms, tummy, legs) - blisters, green, crusts. There was no temperature. The young doctor, being “in a position,” did not look at him for a long time and, having learned about the absence of temperature, quickly retreated, leaving Ds streptoderma. Before the rash appeared, we went to the clinic, to the pool and for a massage, i.e. you could catch chicken pox. Is it possible...

Streptoderma, a group of pustular human skin diseases caused by streptococcus.
Streptoderma. The main morphological element of streptoderma is phlyctena - a cavity in
epidermis with a thin and flabby cover, filled with serous-purulent or purulent contents,
located on smooth skin and not associated with the pilosebaceous follicle.
With chickenpox, the blisters are watery, not purulent, and it is very difficult to confuse them; my son suffered from both.

We recently had streptoderma - the crusts there do not get wet. Just like pimples on the skin (face - on the cheeks), perhaps appearing in the nose - on the way out. And with chickenpox, these pimples undergo changes quite quickly. Streptoderma does not. They don’t go away for quite a long time, or they go away but don’t change (I just asked the doctor this question too). And you need to smear the streptoderma with the red liquid of Castelani. (it is being prepared).

Contagious period: all the time of rash. Manifestations: a few days before the rash appears, itching and soreness of the skin may occur. Then a group of closely spaced bubbles will appear in this place. The temperature rises extremely rarely. Treatment: special antiviral ointments, for example with acyclovir, etc. Important: use the ointment immediately after itching and pain occur, even before blisters appear. In this case, rashes may not occur at all. Hand-foot-mouth syndrome (from the English name Hand-Foot-and-Mouth Disease, HFMD), or enteroviral vesicular stomatitis with exanthema. Pathogen: enteroviruses. Mode of transmission: fecal-oral and airborne. The virus is transmitted from person to person through communication...

How to get rid of fungal diseases of the feet and nails?
...Mycosis can also occur in an erased form, manifesting itself in the form of barely noticeable peeling. Damage to nails due to rubromycosis is accompanied by a change in their color, thickening or atrophy. If left untreated, from a lesion on the feet, a fungal infection can spread throughout the body through lymph or through contact, resulting in similar damage to the hands and nails. Rubromycosis of the skin of the feet with untimely and ineffective treatment always takes on a chronic form and necessarily develops into onychomycosis (damage to the nails), which is difficult to treat, takes a long time and is more contagious than other forms of rubrophytosis.

Just don't laugh. Get treated for worms. Vermox 1t twice a day - three days.

My son had severe allergies. To the cold. Treated according to the doctor's recommendation. With great disbelief. And he began to get better. And all the other troubles went away. The skin became smooth, it was all green - now it’s a pink little pig. :)

In general, such nonsense happens there that worms are allergic, and you have to take the rap for them. :(

We have been treating the burn for three days now. She put the hot porridge on the table to cool (bungler), and he climbed out of his high chair onto the table and put his right hand in the plate. The scream lasted for about three hours, and I cried together with him until our dad arrived. All this time he and I were sitting in the bathroom under cold water, then daddy brought Olozol spray from the pharmacy (with sea ​​buckthorn oil) and we all went to the emergency room. There we were sent to the children's (burn) department, the wound was treated with furatsilin and that's all. And everything oozes out there...

I sympathize: (The same garbage happened at 7 months, the same porridge straight from the stove, right hand into her. We were told to apply d-Panthenol, but they did not touch the blisters (they were only between the fingers). They smeared it, bandaged it, and still had to put a mitten on top - otherwise he would tear it off and eat the ointment (even when they were smearing it in the hospital, he kept trying to eat it, although they said it was bitter :)), I don’t even remember how much time passed, but definitely at least a week until it looks decent

Previously, there was a German spray in orange cans - you apply a thick layer, a light bandage and that's it. This spray helped me a lot with a stomach burn (40%). And on the tram they simply mocked me (in my opinion, on purpose). Try to find a modern medicine for burns to apply before the injury. IMHO, the burn should be treated, and not just bandaged (as our medicine does).
Good luck, get well soon
