A member asked:

I have a bump on my finger that looks like its a wart but it hurts. it is similar to the color of my skin but the top is lighter. what is it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Cannot see this: Need to see and perhaps touch the lesion before a diagnosis can be made. Sometimes a herpes lesion called a whitlow can present like this initially before breaking down. Go see a doctor.
