To ask you to help me work out what's going on with my fingers?

Back in January I developed some strange lumps / red marks on my fingers. GP was pretty useless, thought they might be chillblains. Some more appeared but after a month they had gone. They almost feel like small burns?

Not itchy, but slightly tender to touch. No puncture marks I could see, not bedbugs. One or two were at or nearer base of fingernails and more swollen. Others were flatter. Varying in size from 3mm to around 9mm diameter. Not a particularly defined edge eg not like a blister.

Recently some more, similar red marks have appeared again. I've tried to take photos but it's hard to see them.

I will call GP as it's obviously not chillblains, but wait will be weeks. I think I've had this one or two times before in life. I'm a little run down and tired but otherwise fine.

Any idea what it might be?! TIA

Perhaps I have chilbains then, it hadn't occurred to me. Occasionally they spontaneously get better, sometimes they itch, sometimes they don't, sometimes they are red, sometimes not.

Hope you find a solution.
