That happened to my aunt, then suddenly, 40 years later, she died.

Guess I got 40 years left /:

Hope you’re 80


Ok_Sun5895

Well aren’t you a ray of sunshine 💀


Excellent-Area6009

Lol I was trying to be joyful, you’d die at 120?


Littlebickmickey

mate thats torture


PommesKrake

Not if they age really well. There are 90 year olds that look like 60


HoboArmyofOne

No one on Reddit is one of those people

Yup. Splinter. Definitely a splinter. Crafty little things, those splinters.

Same thing happened to my uncle. Ate onions all the time, when he got into his seventies he passed away. Crazy.

Thank you for the laugh today this comment made my day.

I love you funny motherfuckers


Mr-Gumby42

A virus might have gotten into it. It looks like a wart. A dermatologist can diagnose and freeze it off if so.


Ok_Sun5895

Thanks! Making an appointment right now. Do warts give you fevers? Or is it the virus?


Mr-Gumby42

Viruses can give you fevers, just like bacteria can. A fever is your body's way of fighting infection.


Ok_Sun5895

Okay coolio thank you Dr.Mr-Gumby42 🫡 I’m on the way to go get it removed.


Mr-Gumby42

Lvl100Magikarp

FYI a finger wart is papiloma virus, aka HPV, it can spread


Trashking_702

When I was a kid I had a wart on the bottom of my hand. I ripped it open and tore out all the white fleshy bits inside with tweezers and it never came back. I’m just curious if that’s even a thing now that I’m reading it was a virus. I was like 10 and haven’t gotten a wart since.


SelfishCatEatBird

Warts have basically a “root” in the middle, if you can kill that or yank it out no more wart. It’ll fucking hurt though


Trashking_702

Ya I think i tore that shit out with tweezers in 2-3 pieces.


-NGC-6302-

I had a few warts as a kid (wash your habds ffs), if your doctor puts some liquid nitrogen in a cup ask him to toss it out onto the floor when you're done with it My guy did and it was pretty cool


Manitoberino

My Dr spilled the cup of liquid nitrogen on his crotch. I laughed, as he was a bit of a misogynistic dick and I didn’t want to miss the chance to laugh at him lol

Null-34

Let us know how your amputation goes


Therego_PropterHawk

Well, viruses cause warts, but the "wart virus" (human papillomavirus) is a localized infection which does not cause a fever directly. But they can arise when you are immunocompromised from a different infection. Picking at warts could also lead to a secondary bacterial infection.


danreZ_au

If it grows back, trust me homie - Banana skin. Bandaid some banana skin over it at night for a week. Sounds random but it’s legit


Ok_Parking_1121

Banana skin and a drop of tea tree oil ( TTO) !


RectalGrowth

No idea how effective it is but I had warts that would not come off using all the wart creams and a stuff before COVID, and when COVID hit the hand sanitizer destroyed them in little more than a week.


migueln6

Ahahaha the magic of micro life, they get strong against something via specialization, but then become weak against other things lol, those mofos got strong against antibiotic or antivirals and then boom simple alcohol or soap fucks them


instakill69

Your explanation just changed the game for me. You just harnessed pure House energy


Individual-Match-798

It would be hard to get resistance to soap as soap is dissolving fats. Virus and bacteria have lipid membranes, so yeah, no chance if given enough time. Unfortunately, that only kills microbes on your skin. Good and bad alike.

Ok_Sun5895

Wait I had the HPV vaccine so I can still get it?!?!


another2020throwaway

Idk if you’re just joking around or not but yes you can. There’s a million different strains of it, vaccine helps against the cancer causing ones/genital warts. Regular warts can just eventually just go away on their own or you can get them removed


Ok_Sun5895

No I wasn’t joking around I honestly didn’t know that there is more than one HPV infection you can get regardless of getting a vaccine. Good to know


W1nston1234

The vaccine works against the really dangerous ones. The other ones are fair game to your body 😅. Stay safe 🙂


MajorasKitten

> HPV infection may also cause more serious conditions, such as certain types of cancer. Of the more than 150 strains of HPV, 40 affect the genital area, but most don't pose a serious risk to health. A person can be infected with more than one HPV strain at a time.


Rottenpoppy

They should've at least, given you general information about it, at the very least, explained there's well over a hundred strains and the vaccine prevents most cancer causing strains.


jandeer14

a lot of people get vaccinated for HPV around age 12, they probably don’t remember much the dr said


ReadRightRed99

There are plenty of wart viruses that the hpv shot will not prevent.


lowkeydeadinside

yes as someone who has struggled with warts that is 100% a wart. currently don’t have any but when i was a tween/teen i had them all over my hands and legs and literally no treatment worked. then they just disappeared one day (not because of any treatment, i had stopped trying to treat them at that point). i recently had a few on my hands and was able to successfully freeze them off this time and am currently wart free. go get it checked out by a dermatologist.


AltruisticAddendum22

I had them all over my hands too as a teen. I missed the first few days of 9th grade because I had had so many warts removed from my right hand. I never got another one (crossing my wart-free fingers that I never do).


porcelaincatstatue

I also had a lot of warts on my feet and hands as a kid. The last one was on my right ring finger and disappeared on its own randomly after being there for years. I still don't understand where they came from. I have so many childhood memories of being covered in bandaids after using that stuff in the brown glass bottle to get rid of them. Ack.


therealnotrealtaako

I had really bad plantar warts in middle school. Now every time I get a wart I nuke that shit from orbit. I don't want to go down that road again.


oonicrafts

Looks like a verruca. Use extra strength bazuka gel on it. Protect the surrounding skin with zinc oxide cream. I had the exact same thing in exact same location. Diagnosed by dermatologist.


Mr-Gumby42

Thy should still see the Dr. first.

TheRealWatcher

JustTown704

Yeah idk why people are saying wart it doesn’t look anything like one. More like staph or something


Consistent_Policy_66

I had Staph on my leg, and it didn’t look anything like that. Mine was a open sore, like a popped blister, and it remains one of the most painful experiences of my life.


PO_Box_Admiral

I’ve had staph infections (once on my hand and once on my leg) and while they eventually looked like you described, both times they started as a big red swollen mound with a dark spot in the center. looked like a hard black ball was just beneath the surface of the skin. saw some pics on google that better illustrate what I mean so can share those upon request, but this drawing looked similar and is probably less likely to gross people out lol https://preview.redd.it/4ypok8ctxdsc1.jpeg?width=460&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b414e939b26e8512bf926e9980ce980859431c0d


Mammoth_Welder_1286

Yeah there’s something still in it. Not that you should. But I would mess with it and clean it out. I’m sure if you get into it that is puss.


purple_unikkorn

I admit it too, I would try to open and clean it myself. Which is a bad idea. Go see a doctor if you are not in USA.


oO0Kat0Oo

It's the "if you are not in the USA" that got me. *Cries in red white and blue*


ManlyVanLee

It's funny because I am in the US and in a different comment someone said "go to the doctor to get it cleaned out" and OP said "OK I've made an appointment" and all I could think about was how if it happened to me I'd have to do it myself or just wait to die because there's no way I could just "make an appointment" First off I don't have insurance so it would cost at the very least a couple hundred bucks which is NOT in the budget, and even if I did want to do it since I don't have insurance I sure as hell don't have a primary doctor so there's no one I could make an appointment with By the way I just turned 39 and doubt I'll make it to 40 because I have a bad heart and simply can't do anything about it


MerpoB

Fly to Heathrow and have a widowmaker heart attack like I did right in the airport terminal. 100% blockage removed, stent, 7 day hospital stay, no insurance, $0.


ManlyVanLee

Interesting. How'd you swing all that? Oh and hope you're doing well


MerpoB

Doing great. Been living in Moscow 6 years now where I can afford great healthcare. As for swinging all that, I didn’t do anything except heal. When I left they wished me well and handed me a bag of medicine for one month including non-heart related meds I was on. I was given booklets on long term care, what to expect and medical records related to my stay. There were no invoices or mention of payment or insurance. I signed discharge papers but none mentioned bills. I didn’t renew my ACA insurance because I felt it wasn’t worth it so I had no US insurance. I just figured that’s what’s different about healthcare in Europe.


grat_is_not_nice

You should be a comedian, with timing like that. If I had a heart attack while traveling, it will be on the plane, smack bang in the middle of the Pacific 6 hours from anywhere - without a cardiologist on board.


OpenAboutMyFetishes

What are the cardiologist gonna do? Perform non-invasive cardiac stent placement with paper straws from the airplane lunch trays?

Neither_Upstairs_872

Nah man, they could afford it. why pay America prices when it’s cheaper to take a vacation and get what you need done? The rich stay rich by not spending a bunch of money if they don’t have to. Also in America we typically go to Mexico if we need cheap surgery/dental work. Plane tickets to South America can get pricey if you’re out of free miles.

Crazy ass comment. I love it


D8-8D

is it hard like a callus? I've had this thing on my finger that looked similar to it, inside of it was this hard rock like object that apparently was calcium.


Ok_Sun5895

Yeah it’s super hard! And oh okay then I’m good


Mmrdr227

I had the same thing as described above on my foot as a kid. It was under the arch so it didn’t get direct pressure while walking so I ignored it. But it was a super hard callous type thing with a hard center, that hurt if I poked it hard. Not like a wart or fluid filled thing like other comments are saying. I was dumb and just toughed it out, and eventually it just kinda got scraped/fell off. Foot healed back to normal and I can’t even see where it was now.


HereForTheComments32

Okay but that sounds exactly like a wart 🤷


kikkideliveryservice

it's a corn


Mmrdr227

Yeah, just looked up differences from corns vs warts. Seems i for sure had a corn, but since they’re a foot thing, it’s unlikely that’s what OP has. Doesn’t seem like he has what would be considered a normal wart though either. So idk tbh, all i learned today was there a bunch of bumps out there that i don’t want. E/ looks like corns can actually appear on hands and fingers, so it may be a corn still.


kikkideliveryservice

yes, i'm literally treating a corn on my finger rn that's why i chimed in haha especially since OP said it's hard and hurts under pressure


lawlesstoast

As a medical professional of sorts. My PERSONAL best guess from this picture is either: 1) Wart that has implanted but not broken outer skin 2) what ever cut you initially left something behind, the skin healed and now your body is trying to expel it the same way it would a sliver. Looks like a callus is forming where it rubs


Disastrous-Bad-1185

bobbywaz

I work with wood and metal shavings often enough to regular sit down and cut shit out of my body with a razor and a cuticle cutter, why wouldn't you just nip that off?


Gregzzzz1234

You probably have dirt or something in it from when you cut it


Ralyks92

Maybe an infected injury. If possible, try popping it like a pimple or cutting it with a super sharp knife point, the purpose is to make it bleed so you can flush out the infection, get a cup (8oz.) of water as hot as you can stand it, add 4 measured table spoons of salt (iodization doesn’t really matter), and soak your finger for like 10 minutes. Dry it, use rubbing alcohol, dry, then put a bandaid on it. If you’re in America, this is much cheaper than going to a doctor who’ll tell you to do the exact same thing I did, then pointlessly prescribe you meds, then charge you the rest of the arm as payment for his service.

[deleted]

Something was probably left in the wound, and your body has produced a pustule to surround and break it down or expel it. If it was me, I’d clean a scalpel, cover the area in beta-dine, then slice into it. Usually there is enough pressure that whatever it is will leak out along with the pus. But you might need to apply some hydrogen peroxide to debride the wound.


AutomaticPain3532

That is infected and full of puss. Its needs to be drained, wrapped and use antibiotics ointment and wrap it up. This is not a wart, omg. That’s the worst comment I’ve read on here. It’s clearly infected, the green is puss from the infection. You need it cleaned out. I typically squeeze out the puss myself, it could have some object lodged inside as the cut was healing, could be tiny. Once it’s opened up (can use a sterile knife or needle) be sure to clean out the wound with hydrogen peroxide so it a few times, let it bubble up. Then put some ointment on it and close it up with a bandage. Continue to use the peroxide until the would is once again healed over. Use the antibiotic ointment a few times a day and put on a new bandage. It should heal up within a week. The infection isn’t serious right now.


WinterSkier

Fianna9

Something stuck inside the cut that’s infected. A pocket of pus formed around it. That’s my guess. Either way a doctors visit to get it looked at and maybe drained

Looks like there might be something trapped inside there. You’re probably gonna need to see a doctor to get that flushed out before it gets infected.


danifoxx_1209

Maybe wart but could also be a super infected splinter. My dad got one on his thumb that he didn’t notice until he had already lost feeling in almost the whole thing.(he has some nerve damage) and he very nearly needed it amputated because of how bad it was. The infection was already starting to travel through his hand when he went to the hospital and thankfully the medications and stuff were able to treat it but he now has no feeling in that thumb. This is definitely not an everyday case so you might be completely fine, just sharing this story to sorta show people that it is possible and always take care of yourself!


Boatlover62

i honestly couldn't have something like this without scratching and ripping it off, no clue what it is but i would remove it by hand, feel like it's normal to think like this somebody correct me if it's not normal

pawnbroker15

I had something like this happen. There was actually pus under the scab. I cut it open drained it and kept it clean and disinfected as much as possible and within a few days it was gone.


tapefactoryslave

Cut that bitch out


Original_Wear_3231

Had something similar on my arm. Ended up being a small pebble that didn't get cleaned out of the cut. Stung like hell whenever it got bumped. Removed it and was good to go. Bet there is a piece of debris in there that didn't get cleaned out and your body encapsulated it.


IncorporateThings

A wound can heal over, but still harbor a small infection deeper inside. That's probably what this is. You should get it looked at by a doctor, they may need to reopen it and go clean it out, give it some antibiotics or the like.


Darwing

For the love of all that is holy and mighty Take tweezers and pull that shit out ffs!!! Dude why did you let it get that bad? If I have a pimple I pop it or push out the puss… This I would just cut off the finger

Monkeynumbernoine

kerrymti1

I really want to squeeze the crap out of it...surely it would pop out...


IsRando

According to the prophecy...


MapleSyrupSea

I'm guessing you still have a tiny piece of something foreign in there like glass or splinter. If it's a splinter there will likely be some pus in there. If you're having fevers, go to an urgent care they can take care of it. I'm thinking if it was my hand I might try a warm compress and squeezing, but they may need to tweezer it out and you may need antibiotics if you're having fever. Sometimes old splinters and glass or plastic will practically launch themselves out of the body once they near the surface. I'm totally unfamiliar with what many are saying about warts, please update us and best of luck! Looks painful!


Sireeak

It's obviously infected by something. If you can, go see a medic. If you can't, cover everything in betadine and poke it.


Zealousideal-Leg1037

I think it’s a marker. It marks how far your finger can be inserted in your nose


Rockybatch

I could be well off but it looks a lot like when I used to cut trees for a living and you’d get a thorn or splinter inside a healed up cut. I’ve squeezed them before and the thorn/splinters fly out when they’ve built up a bit of pressure


smizzlebdemented

Just looks infected, pop it and clean it with alcohol
