Tiny Finger Blisters

Hey all,
I'm getting these tiny little blisters on the sides of my fingers. It isn't hindering to my lifts, however it's annoying. I'm guessing it's some sort of blister from lifting but it could be anything... any thoughts? Any help?

Thanks

poison ivy?

Do they ITCH? Have you been in the woods (hiking, mtn biking etc.) or doing yard work recently?

Might be poison ivy...

Some years I'm susceptible and other years I never get it, but if it shows up, it often starts as little tiny itchy blisters on the sides of my fingers.

None so far this year...knock on wood...

Wear gloves while lifting or doing pullups? Maybe it's just your skin getting rough due to the strain of the workouts and the rubbing (friction) against it when you lift? My skin is kind of rough at the bottom of my fingers from doing pullups without gloves sometimes.

Weird...on the sides?? I don't know man.... just tough it out. Wrap 'em in athletic tape or something. Is it friction related or do you have something else going on? And don't do lifting gloves. Those are for little girls.

rough hands are tough - gloves say I am at the gym, but I am really thinking more about keeping my soft smooth hands than grabing huge things and tossing them around. Your girl doesn't like it? - grab some sandpaper.
