Peeling Bumps Between Fingers, Severe. Are They Due To Heat?
My entire life I have had small bumps that peel
between my fingers every summer, and they always pass. I have always attributed this to the heat. This year, they are severe, I suspect because the humidity has been severe, and I am wondering how I can treat them for appearance reasons.
They do not itch, there is no pus or redness.

Hi, these bumps appears that it is due to pricly heat, and the bacterial infection, secondary to it. When ever there is excess of heat and humidity, they will flare. They need to be treated with antibiotics and other medicines .
