The water...especially pool water...will slow the natural replacement of skin cells on your body, since it is also being slufted off all the time. You may want to seal the wound in a water-proof bandage...there are 'second-skin' products available OTC which may also be of help here.

Of several types of skin cancer possible, 3 are the most common = basal cell carcinoma (BCC), squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), and malignant melanoma (MM) ( alias melanocarcinoma) BCC is the most common, slowest growing, and rarely ever spreads to any other part of the body, thus making it easiest to cure. SCC is more malignant and after growing larger where it began could invade local tissues by spreading out, and rarely infrequently spreading elsewhere in the body. MM is the killer as once the initial melanoma begins to grow, in its irregular edges and color, it can spread through the body's lymph system to all parts of the entire body and take life away. It's the MM that needs to be identified and completely excised before it spreads. The exact amount of time is unknown, perhaps weeks to months. Once a MM spread to a distant site in the body, more than a few inches away or to one of the other body organs besides the skin, cure becomes rare. Try searching wen sites for malignant melanoma to see photos and more info. Yopu can also see photos of BCC and SCC. BCC and SCC are mainly found on the elderly in sun-exposed skin of the head. MM can be found in all adults almost anywhere in the body.

I would first go to a dermatologist or physican. Other than that, I would just put neosporin on the finger. You might be allegic to the chlorine in the water. Try to stay out of the pool.
