Is this a blister or callus on my daughters pinky finger or something else?

Question

It's white, hard and a little smaller than pea size. It's been there for months & I don't know what to do with it?

Answer 1

I'm sure that it is something very benign. But since it's been there for months, I'd have it checked out by a doctor. It doesn't sound like a blister. It may be a wart or mole. Is this the same daughter with the skin tags? I'll tell you what one of my nursing instructors told me when I was in college. "When you hear hoof-prints, think of horses before zebras." I try to remember that when I become concerned about my children's health. But I still grab the ole medical books. lol And, believe me, I can still find something in there that will scare the crap out of me. That's why doctors don't treat their own family members. lol Good luck, girl. :)

Answer 2

I doubt it's a blister: Blisters generally aren't hard and don't hang around for months. I'm tempted to call it a mole or wart. Don't do anything but watch it, and if it changes take your daughter to have it checked.

Good luck!

Answer 3

Its probably just a wart, but get in checked just in case.
