What Does A Purple Lump On The Middle Finger Indicate?
yes, my middle finger has large purple lump 1 x 1/2 under the skin below the first joint. The doctor doesn t know what it is. He x rayed it and asked another doctor and he doesn t know either. I do have joint issues and arthritis but the docs say it isn t related to that. They called an expert hand specialists. I have not heard from the specialist yet and its been a week. I have had this for 4 weeks. I never bumped it or hurt it, it just showed up one day I noticed the pain and burning nd then saw the large purple area and swelling.
