Every once in a while, portions of my fingers (like, the sections between the creases) will get really red and really, really, REALLY itchy. Like, painfully itchy. Unable to be ignored itchy. They get really hot, too, and there's a pulse. They swell up and get so tight it seriously feels like my finger might burst. There's no pain involved, just extreme itchiness and heat and the weird swelling. It goes away after 45 minutes or so.
Anyone know what this might be? I'm going to try to work up the courage to go to the dermatologist, but I feel so silly describing something so weird--especially when it's not happening *right that moment.*
