What Causes Small Hard Bump On My Right Hand Point Finger?
Question: Hello Doctor,
I have got a small hard bump on my right hand point finger. It is around the first joint of the finger (below the nail). It'been around 1.5 - 2 months now since I observed this. It would'nt bother me as such, but when I put pressure on it while doing household jobs, it slightly pains. Just wanted to check if I can do anything about it.
Thank you.

Hello XXXXXXX
Could you please upload a picture of the same? You have a feature for the same on the right side of this query page. Please utilize it.
Going by your description, it seems like a benign lesion. Perhaps, a fibroma or benign cyst.
If it is causing you trouble, it can be excised surgically without any problem.
Hope this helps you.
