Sounds like it could be gangreen- if you are sure its not paint or cosmetic (not literally some colour you have picked up by touching something), go to you doctor, as an emmergency. If this is not possible and if you are in the uk, go to the nearest NHS walk-in clinic (go to nhs direct or call 08454647 to find your nearest)
If it is gangreen it could result in you loosing your finger, your hand or your arm if iots not dealt with and spreads!

Hope it's not meningecoccal!
Do you have flu like syptoms or a rash anywhere on your body?
If so, you need to get to a hospital without delay. No kidding. It is life-threatening.
Is it possible that you have been bitten by a spider???
