I will state the obvious See a doctor. Sounds like you may have a reoccurring infection that the wound may need to be cleaned out. Could be a staph infection you need an antibiotic for that but only a doctor can tell you that. Good luck.

I also have a small cut on my right thumb tip that wont heal. Its no more then a scratch but the dang thing just wont close up and scab over. Had it for about 5 weeks now. Not sure how I came to have it.
It feels infected, I leave it open and wash with soap alot and juice it up with lemon once in a while.
The worst it gets, the more it seems a doctor will soon be a likely scenario.

I always put Anti-bacterial soap and rub it into small cuts. Wash it regularly. Keep it covered. Sometimes cuts want to heal from the inside out. Stop popping that zit! You squeezing it is just adding more germs from your hands to the wound. If you sweat alot in that area, keep it cleaned more often. Are you on blood thinners? Have you ever been checked for diabetes? Many people who are borderline diabetics take a long time for wounds to heal. See a doctor.

It is most likely a cyst; especially if it is a hard "zit". A good remedy, that has been used by the Egyptians is Honey. The honey dose have properitys to make the body heal, and will keep bacteria out.

Yeah, that's a sign of cancer. Doesn't mean you have it, but it never hurts to get checked out. Maybe you just have a disorder or something where the blood doesn't clot or doesn't clot fast enough.

That bump is probably infection. Go to your Doctor. Cuts that won't heal mean that there is something more than that cut going on.
