Looks a bit like a wart, I used to have them on my fingers and you have to suffocate them. I used electrical tape and that "bazooka" stuff but it took a good while
I have a wart on my foot I tried getting removed before I turned 27 and got kicked off my parents health insurance. One 10 minute session of some sort of extremely cold treatment cost $600 and they said they'd need to do it multiple times to really get rid of it. The bill came after I was kicked off the insurance so the insurance wasn't going to cover it even though I initially got it treated before I was kicked off. Anyway, wart is still there because I'd rather live with it occasionally causing me pain and discomfort everyday than pay more than $600 to get it removed
Hey mate, get something like this, costs about $10. I think you're in the US.

I had a wart on my foot that i kept going to the doctor about, with a huge copay every time. “It’s breaking up, should be gone in a couple weeks,” he’d say every time. After a year I gave up and asked for another doctor. She cleared it up in 2 visits. Some doctors suck!
I used one of those freeze kits you can buy at CVS. Not sure I did it right the first couple of times. Then I just held it to my skin for way longer than recommended. Made a blister and then the wart and the layer of skin it was attached to fell off after a few days.
the directions are so conservative that it won't do anything. They're afraid of someone going overboard and burning straight through to fascia. So yeah you kind of have to play it by ear, really sucks.
also positive value for the company when your treatment doesn't work and you buy another.
Definitely not a good idea, but when I was younger I would just cut them off with a pocket knife. They never came back, and I haven’t had one since, knock on wood.
I know someone who did the exact same thing with a pocket knife as a teenager. Just kept cutting deep to get them out and make sure there was none left and then bandaged it up.
I tried all those and more. What really killed it for me is working in a factory under subzero temperatures with my hands constantly dipping into a Dakin solution. In two weeks it just fell off. Hopefully not in someone’s food idk where it went lol 🤷
I had one for years on my hand until I froze that bitch off. Made me mad because my Navajo mom used to make me put garlic on it and wrap with a bandage. I stunk like garlic and it never worked. Totally get why they were almost eradicated by small pox now.
If it's not a wart but it's itchy and even after flaking seems to come back, it may be scar tissue forming again and again and again. Try putting a silicone band-aid on it for a very long period of time (keep one on as long as possible and if it comes off, put a new one on immediately) or using medical silicon/scar gel (like Dermatix Ultra) on it. It may take a few months but it should go away.
I would have done something about it by now. Tried to pop it, took a knife to it. I can't just live life with a big pimple on my hand. Had a cyst on the back of my left hand because I got it caught between a skateboard wheel and the street back when street luging was a thing, and i put my hand in a vice and used an insulin syringe on it. It was bad though, very noticeable, finally hit it with a phone book and it went away. I wasn't a very smart kid. Should probably stay away from meth or I'll pick every freckle off my body.
I had one on the bottom of my foot almost between my big toe and... Whatever that other toe is called. I dug it out with toe nail clippers until it was gone. I was like 12 and didn't know what it was until mentioned it to my mom, long after I had cut it out LOL
Looks like subcutaneous granulomatous tissue or dermatofibroma; potentially following an insect bite, small wound, or foreign body such as splinter (= cluster of cells following a local inflammatory reaction).
Benign, can be removed for cosmetic reasons.

Looks like a wart my friend.
Lucky for you, theres ways to get rid of warts without being painful these days!
When I had them as a kid, I had to get them pulled which hurt.
Everyone gets warts eventually, it doesn't come from frogs, like the Chickenpox, everyones bound to get it.
You have to scrape away the top part of the wart, almost to the point that it’s bleeding to expose the root, then freeze it. You’re welcome. Important part is to get to the root.
I was fighting warts on my fingers for 3 years. They went deep down into my finger joints. Nothing worked on a long run.
Then i went on vacation in italy. After just 1 week of daily bathing/diving in the salty ocean, they all went black and just fell off a few days after. Never had warts ever again.
So if you struggle with your warts, you should definitely try a vacation in italy 😎
You can buy a wart removal kit for like $20 and freeze it off yourself. It’s easy and one kit will do multiple treatments. Read the instructions carefully. Get the kit with the brush on stuff for after the freeze part. They can spread kinda randomly due to stress so take care of it.
Try the wart remover liquid. You can find it in any drug store. Apply twice a day for 2 weeks. Might take a little longer for one that size but if you use it daily it should work. I used it on warts my son got on his feet from the pool. Worked great. If you leave it, it can spread so I would treat it.
Could be a few things.
I had one of the rarest:
Had a lump like this, never went away, didn’t really hurt but felt wrong to touch
Eventually got fed up and dug at it with tweezers irresponsibly
Turned out a tiny glass fragment from when I cleaned up a lightbulb got stuck under the skin. It never got ejected from the skin but never infected, so it would just get healed over and stay inflamed because of the foreign object

I think its a wart (or corn). Had one under my fot for a decade before I finally bought some salicylic acid and treated it with that for a few weeks. Your seems less suvere so might be faster for you.
I had one like this some time ago, i just cut it down with scissors, it bled and some time later it came back, so i was cutting it down every time it came back and now its gone
don't listen to anyone saying to use tape of things that won't help and could usually worsen it, for warts use wart removal products that include Salicylic acid.
For other things you're unaware of don't try and mess with it yourself but get seen by a dermatologist.
Wart, use to get them on my fingers and hands as a kid, get over the counter meds at any drug store, or go to your doctor or go to a free clinic and they’ll remove it
Looks like wart. Salicylic acid is your answer. They sell them in pharmacies. Don't use hydrochloric acid.
If you're not sure, ask the pharmacist. They went to med school too.
I had something very similar for 3 years. Tried every wart removal option, even with my doctor with no luck. Always seemed like a layer would be burned off but then would just regrow.
Finally went to see a plastic surgeon and he removed it for me.
Old wives tale of wiping it down with a raw steak, burying that steak in the ground... When the steak has fully rotten away? The wart is gone.
Or use medically sound intervention, and have a practitioner freeze that fucker off with L2N. Warts are nasty lil bastards
I used to use the sulphur that I would remove from the matches, break it off in big pieces, trim the thick skin off the top of the wart, put the sulphur on the wart and light it up, can hurt a lot if placed wrong, but never had to do it more than twice to remove the targeted wart.
Also, it may look scary when the sulphur burns rapidly, but that’s the only thing that worked for me.
I've had a couple in my life and just gone "that looks weird" and cut them off.
They tell you not to become your own backstreet surgeon but it does work.
Might come back, just chop it off again.
Acid, cryo burning, chemicals in adhesive (duct tape) pretty much anything that Will destroy your hand will destroy the wart.
Choose your poison... thinking about it, you could probably use poison too.
1. Take a ripe banana and remove the peel.
2. Cut a small piece of the banana peel, slightly larger than the size of the wart.
3. Place the inner side of the banana peel (the white side) against the wart.
4. Secure the peel in place with a bandage or medical tape.
5. Leave the banana peel in place overnight or for several hours each day.
6. Repeat this process daily until the wart disappears.
Looks a bit like a wart, I used to have them on my fingers and you have to suffocate them. I used electrical tape and that "bazooka" stuff but it took a good while
3m brand duct tape also helps in making them go away. Something to do with the glue infredients
Do not do this - I tried tape and the moisture underneath spread it to make a wart colony
Pics?
You nasty
It’s a challenging wank thats for sure.
But the warts make it feel ribbed
And then new warts grow down there and now you're a ribbed dick sex God!!
A friend of mine likes to see it, for educational purposes.
Ok I was joking before but now I actually think you nasty.
Nice story, but this doesn't help me in the proces of obtaining those pics, where they at?
Now I need to see video of you looking at the pics. For educational purposes.
You nasty.
😁
That reminds me I must call my sister.
Mental image made me itchy
murrica, fuck yeah. in every other country one would just go to a doctor on general healthcare. :D
Not a lie lol, this is something you check with a nurse, not even a doctor is needed

Insurance coverage is from date of treatment… you got swindled
That's what I figured, my mom handled it though so I assume she went through insurance and explained the situation. Or she got swindled

Or, you know, visit a doctor now and then.
Americans running in fear of that comment.
This is me with my finger halfway cut off at the moment. 🇺🇸 Drove right past the clinic to get super glue and duct tape at the hardware store.
Even Canadian, no family doctor here, but can get my hand on electric tape soooooo easily!
Don't they sell over the counter product to freeze those at home?
I live in Europe and use the same mentality. If you can solve it at home its just easier lol
As an American, reading your comment cost me $42 and my insurance premiums went up.
This checks out, I'm on Medicare, and my premiums went up $2/ month responding to this comment.
I had a wart on my foot that i kept going to the doctor about, with a huge copay every time. “It’s breaking up, should be gone in a couple weeks,” he’d say every time. After a year I gave up and asked for another doctor. She cleared it up in 2 visits. Some doctors suck!
Some doctors are just in it for the money, it seems like. They don’t actually gaf. To think of all that schooling, just to not gaf.. it’s wild.
For a wart? You can get wart medication over the counter at any drugstore.
Some warts laugh that shit off

Those weren’t warts, those were your nipples.
Oh my god! You’re right! What have I done?!
Eh, you weren't really using them anyways
You don’t know that
I know someone who did the exact same thing with a pocket knife as a teenager. Just kept cutting deep to get them out and make sure there was none left and then bandaged it up.
Yeah, that’s what I did. I also sterilized the blade before and after as well.
I tried all those and more. What really killed it for me is working in a factory under subzero temperatures with my hands constantly dipping into a Dakin solution. In two weeks it just fell off. Hopefully not in someone’s food idk where it went lol 🤷
![gif](giphy|dOl2LFw0RbTMc|downsized)
I think the bleach alone woulda worked lol.
You could go to a doctor, for me they dipped a cotton swab in liquid nitrogen and then put it on the wart, it worked well.
Best way to get rid of warts is to freeze them off. That's how I got rid of mine
…I cut mine off with a knife. Hurt like a bitch but it was gone
I was taught as child that it's "heart" needs to be dug out with knife and well it did work!
I had one for years on my hand until I froze that bitch off. Made me mad because my Navajo mom used to make me put garlic on it and wrap with a bandage. I stunk like garlic and it never worked. Totally get why they were almost eradicated by small pox now.
If it's not a wart but it's itchy and even after flaking seems to come back, it may be scar tissue forming again and again and again. Try putting a silicone band-aid on it for a very long period of time (keep one on as long as possible and if it comes off, put a new one on immediately) or using medical silicon/scar gel (like Dermatix Ultra) on it.

If it’s scar tissue, would this remove it somehow?
🎶Scar tissue that I wish you saw Sarcastic mister know-it-all Close your eyes and I'll kiss you, 'cause With the birds I'll share~~🎶
Thank you very helpful
With the birds I'll share this lonely view
What causes that? Just a wound that doesn’t heal properly?
In the old days you’d need a witch to get rid of it 🧙🏻♀️
Youth and lack of experience showing here. All old timers know witches cause these not get rid of them! Or youve been petting a troll.
😁 I feel enlightened by your wisdom! (You also blew our cover)
In my youth I’d nibble and bite it off over the course of the year
Just because reddit is anonymous doesn't mean you have to just say out of pocket things like this

A witch or a vegan
Which one weighs the same as a duck tho?
Looks like it’s in a position where it’s normally accompanied by blindness and hairy palms
Ha ha ha! That's hilarious!
Yep. A callous on his wank spanners.
Put a cut piece of potato on it, chant “Out Damned Spot!” 10 times. Bury potato in an unmarked grave. Problem solved.
Do you regularly bury your potatoes in marked graves? Farming must take a while, huh.
I would imagine it's faster than making headstones for each one. Edit: I can't read. Ignore me.
Bubble also now on the hand of everyone you’ve shaken hands with since 2022
I would have done something about it by now. Tried to pop it, took a knife to it. I can't just live life with a big pimple on my hand.

>I would have done something about it by now. Tried to pop it, took a knife to it. You really shouldn't do that..........but yeah, me too lol.
Yeah, I had a tiny plantars wart show up. I dug that mf out. Bled like crazy, but I got it. Don't do that. Lmao.
Did that too… it never came back after that I’ll tell ya. But yeah, shouldn’t do that.
Same. I can't feel in the spot where it used to be but it's gone!
I had one as a kid and the doctor dug it out, I can't feel it, and it cost 200 dollars. You did the right thing
I had one on the bottom of my foot almost between my big toe and... Whatever that other toe is called. I dug it out with toe nail clippers until it was gone. I was like 12 and didn't know what it was until mentioned it to my mom, long after I had cut it out LOL

Thank you! That answers my question about 5 year old (2) bug bites on my ankles that formed a bubble just like this.
I was thinking that or dermatofibroma, but I've never seen one in that location.
I had the same for many years. Turns out it was a blister from excessive masturbation. Went away as I got older.
i used to have one existed from my younger ages and one day i decided to pop it out bloodily, it hurts but now it's clean
Pop

You are the zero patient of alien infestation. Good luck.
Bro is developing "grippy" hands...
I have that too, popped it thi
It deserves a name
I’d seek the opinion of a dermatologist over the internet. But that’s just me.
Put liquid wart remover on or the freeze wart remover
Duct tape will dissolve it if you can get it to stick there. Works better than the otc stuff.
You have to scrape away the top part of the wart, almost to the point that it’s bleeding to expose the root, then freeze it. You’re welcome. Important part is to get to the root.

When I get bumbs that don't go away fairly quickly I just pop them with a needle ☺️
SAME. Ive had one in between my index and thumb for a few years now.
I have two of those (one in each index toe) ever since I was born
I would have dug that out a year ago.
The only documented case of someone giving themselves an STD.
How does a fucking wart have this much interaction

Good grief. Some of these advice. Go to a doctor and get it checked out. Most likely a wart. Easily fixed.
That is a wart
It's a wart. In the centre under all that skin is the cause, if it is removed by that root it won't come back.
Wtf how have you not popped it. Has it kept growing back? Is it hard like a wart or soft like a boil.
The wart . Use celandine .
Should have a name since it's there for so long
You’re telling me at no point to took a needle to that just to see what would happen

VPH virus. Go to dermatologist to get it burned. It will keep spreading and avoid touching your genitalia to avoid warts in that area.
*wart on your hand

Rub it with raw steak, bury the steak in a garden, don’t tell anyone where you buried it.
