A member asked:

Finger it's swollen and looks infected there are four small bumps with dark centers and white around the outside they seemto be growing and burns?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Get it checked: If a finger is infected, burns, and is growing you should be seen right away to get on medications. Finger and hand infections can be really bad if they are not treated early so go get it checked.
