Hi! so, i was washing my hands earlier, and on my right ring finger, i noticed a small indentation, like a pinprick. need i be alarmed?

Probably not: the only way to be sure it to have it evaluated by a doctor, especially someone with experience in dermatology. The most important thing to do is keep an eye on it, maybe by taking a picture of the spot next to a ruler so you have some reference later, and observe for change over time.
