I have a friend at college who has something that looks almost exactly the same on his knuckle, (think it'd have to be surgically removed) I really doubt its anything serious, but you'd want to know what it is.

But if its growing, thats not good.

Don't cut don't cut! Don't ever cut something off your body! It sounds goofy but common! What would you rather do: Go to a doctor and have him tell you its nothing and give you a topical creme, or cut it off with an X-Acto knife then be rushed to the emergency ward 2 weeks later with a serious infection and now your hand needs to be chopped off. Which one man? Go to a doctor.

I ripped one of those things off of my elbow as a kid with pliers... it is always best to rambo it

I had a similar thing on my thigh, while i did consider getting it looked up, i took the easy way out an used a siccor. Woked out for me, however, it kinda came back, not as big thou. So i don't care much, now it just looks like a grothmark

Since its on the hand however, id get it looked up and surgically removed.

Hey might be a what-do-you-call it... a person with another person living inside it? Fetus in fetu.

What it basically is, is that a fetus lives and creates a link between both twins so its actually growing inside of you. Get yourself checked! Unless you want a parasite living inside you until your 30 :x

i think it might be a wart or a mole possibly? I had a bump like that on my foot up until a couple months ago when i decided to get rid of it. Regardless, i imagine its most likely benign, just a bit negative in terms of cosmetics
