A weird thing...

December 19, 2004

Hello all! Tonight when I took off Ava's shoes, I noticed a weird

thing on the bottom of her foot. It was a little round dot, and

almost seemed like a blister. I don't want to gross anyone out, but

it popped and oozed clear fluid. But it was very very tiny, and was

on her sole, about 3/4 of an inch under her big toe. I thought that

was kind of a strange place for a blister. Is that what it probably

is? Or is there something else it could be? She's been in the shoes

for almost a month, and we haven't had any trouble. It also didn't

seem to bother her at all, and there was no redness around it.

Thanks!

,

I would just keep an I on it. I know when Ava was in the Markells for

the brief period her feet sweat so bad. When I would take off the

shoes there would be little drops of persperation on the bottom of

the shoe. The way you decribed the blister is sounds like it could be

from sweating. Almost like the start of athletes foot only she's too

little to scratch it. LOL Are her feet warm or moist when you take

off the shoes & socks? I would just let them air out real good when

you have them off for the hour and maybe put a little powder on the

soles of her feet before putting them back on. I hope it helps.

I wonder if this is similar to what I and one of my sons get. My mom

called them worry warts, and it does seem they come up related to

stress... or not. Mine itch and I get them on my feet, toes and fingers

(on the digits, they happen on the edges and the soles of my feet in the

arch). They itch and after popping fill up again, a little itchy but then

will go away. I get them a few times a year. My middle child gets them

occasionally on his fingers but I've only seen them on him, I don't pop

them (he'd freak lol!).

Oh yeah, the reason my mom had a name for them... she gets them too.

Kori,

That sounds like eczema. I get that. Little bumps that itch like

CRAZY!! Then they pop and dry up and sometimes your skin peels too.

That is related to stress (I get it when we're getting ready for

vacation sometimes haha), and also wetness (always having your hands

in water). It's hereditary too, my mom gets it. I guess that could

be what Ava's bump was, but I tend to get it in between my fingers.

Ava's was on the sole of her foot, I would think it might be between

her toes. And it was only 1 bump, not alot. By the way, a really

thick lotion like Eucerin helps clear up eczema.

I don't think it's exema, because it doesn't flake. And it only itches a

little. And it's often just one bump, maybe two right next to each other

but never more than that. I get them right in the very tender part of my

arch near the heel. :'( I'm sure they're worry warts lol! But if I ever

see what you're describing I'll know, I never knew exema presented like

that, I thought it was just cracking/flaking/itching (my best friend had it

when I was little, her hands were a mess).

Thanks!

I have eczema on my hands and yes what a mess. When it decides to show its

ugly head my hands are so nasty looking for the longest time and then it

decides to go away for awhile until I start thinking its gone forever and

then oops there it is again. Most people are lucky enough to grow out of

it.
