Tiny Hole in Finger - Skin Problems Message Board

NashVegasGirl · 03-21-2005, 07:52 AM

I've had a tiny hole in the side of my index finger for about 2 years. At first I thought it was a wart, but I tried to treat it with wart removal stuff and it just got big and hard and the hole became black. Every time i make a doctors appt, it goes almost 100% away. I'm now using Bio-T on it, and it's swollen and hard and killing me. Any ideas what this might be? Thanks

Does it bleed or does any fluid come out of it? I sometimes get these tiny little things under the skin on my hands that look like blisters or warts. They are flat and don't protrude like blisters. When picked at, they ooze a clear fluid and heal on their own. Sometimes they go away, sometimes they come back.. my brother gets them, too. I dont' know what they're called, but was wondering if it sounded like what you had.

Dear Big Momma;
Well, last night I got after it and some clear fluid came out, but as soon as I put Neosporin or Hydrogen peroxide or anything on it the llittle hole turns black. Plus it hurts like HELL. Its a big lump. Its almost like theres something in there, but when I go i with a needle its all clear, but it is definately a hole as opposed to something raised. I appreciate your input!

Hmmm.. if it hurts, I'd be concerned. And the doctor hasn't seen it at all? If it hurts as much as you say and you've had this 2 years, I really don't know what it could be... sorry... but I hope whatever it is goes away or you get treated for it. I know how uncomfortable things like that can be.
