Brief Answer:
This is not indicative of warts or eczema!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for the images.

I have revised both. The small lump is clearly not HPV. Though the immediate cause cannot be stated at this time, I will recommend that you put an eye on it for monitoring purposes only.

The fingers seems more of the skin shredding off because of an erosive chemical. Check to make sure there is nothing corrosive that you have applied to this finger. This is not eczema either.

I hope this helps. I wish you well.

Hi thanks for the reply dr!

I'm relieved to hear that I do not have eczema or hpv but am still concerned it may be something else.

As for the dry flaking skin on my finger. I can't think of anything I have touched that is corrosive. In the meantime, do you recommend any kinds of lotions or creams? Or will that not help?

Thanks,
XXXXXXX
