A member asked:

My roommate has a little lump on her index finger which seems to hurt/burn when she bumps it. it's a bit swollen. what can cause this?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

This : This could be secondary to an infection (abscess), wart, trauma, etc. It is very difficult to say without a more detailed history and physical. If the "lump" is still present please encourage your roommate to see a doctor. Take care.
