WHAT'S YOUR QUESTION: MY QUESTIONS ARE:
HOW OLD ARE YOU?
HOW LONG HAS IT BEEN THERE?
WHICH FINGERTIP?
WHAT DO YOU DO FOR A LIVING?
HOBBIES?
SINCE I CANNOT SEE YOUR PROBLEM, DO SEE A DERMATOLOGIST SOON.
BEST LUCK.

Diagnosis: Hi, it’s hard to say without a picture but there is a great app that may be able to help you get a diagnosis without being seen in person by a dermatologist. The app is called VisualDX and is one of the best, if not the best out there. Many clinicians, including myself, use it. Just snap a photo and it gives you a list of possible diagnoses. Good luck!
