A member asked:

I have a brown like bruise on my upper right middle finger, what is it?

2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

A bruise?: If you injured the area recently, it probably is a bruise. If not, you really need to have someone look at it in person and give you a precise diagnosis. Or at the very least, send us a photo.

Blood vessel: Ruptured blood vessel would be my guess.
