Do your Liquibets, boy!
But I would go to a Dermatologist, it should be pretty cheap if you have insurance and they'll do more than enough to treat you. Most Dermatologists are nicer than other doctors, too!

maybe it's another finger
|
|
i have the same thing except its on my finger  no clue what it is, doesnt really seem to affect anything tho

Any type of growth that doesn't go away very quickly I would definitely want to show to a doctor.
|
While it doesn't look like a melanoma, you never know. I'd get it checked out
|
Have you been playing Mario Party?

growth on your hand, confirmed as not a wart and you STILL don't want to go see a doctor?? ok, then, here's what you do, (if your country is anything like France) go to a pharmacy and show the pharmacist, it's free, and they will tell you if you should see a doctor.
anyways, I really think you should go to a doctor

i had that on my hand and i just ripped it off

i am getting real funny thoughts on why that happened

I had the same thing (a bit smaller) on my finger like 5 years ago. I finally got tired of seeing it and cut it. It hurt and bled and started healing as a smaller bump. I cut it again and after several times it just disappeared with no signs of ever being there for some reason. I don't really recommend doing this though.
Edit: actually I don't want you to die because I gave an irrelevant story about my bump, which could be very different from what you have. You never know about these things unless you have medical training; it could be anything.

creep tumor! plant another one!
|
you can probably get that thing frozen off like any other wart. Id go to the doctors and get it checked out.

Some kind of wart maybe? getting medical advice online generally isn't a great idea though...

this is TL, not 4chan, and I like to think that most of us are mature enough to recommend the proper course of action ie: going to the doctor's
|
I would ask TL medical team!
|
Probably something inane... but not something you take chances on. Get to a doctor man
|

I think I know what you're thinking.....?
Anyway...see a doctor.

I had something similar, for a year as well. I heated up the tip of a nail clipper with a lighter for 5 minutes, then proceeded to burn the beast. Might work, IF you can handle physical agony.
|
I suggest exposing it to a highly acidic substance. Battery (sulfuric) acid might do the trick actually. You could see a doctor but they really are overrated and google half of their diagnoses anyways. Fix the problem yourself trial and error and feel good about it afterward.

A third testicle perhaps?

I don't understand why you haven't seen a doctor after a year of growth..
|
This reminds me of that guy who posted a blog awhile ago about cutting a growth off his chest. Probably one of the funniest threads in TL history. DONT be like that guy, go see a doctor.
|
Maybe you have a callus? Although, those appear mostly on the finger if you grip your pencil tightly when writing.
|
we should ask dr. house!
house: "it's not lupus"
do you feel this is the result of how you game and that part of your hand rubbing on the keyboard to create a callus or something?
|
Looks like a cutaneous horn. Nothing dangerous. Just hope it doesn't grow too long.
|
Maybe it's a ganglion cyst? They're common on the wrist and fingers but I'm not so sure about the palm of your hand. Just like everyone else has suggested, seeing a doctor is probably wise.
|
Gonna have to agree with everyone that says see a doctor. Like someone else said, while it doesn't look like a melanoma (skin cancer), it's been there a year and it's been growing? Better to be safe.
|
|
Probably some type of wart. Easy to ignore when they're small, but I agree, annoying when they're noticeable. See a doctor and he'll probably be able to just spray it with liquid nitrogen to burn it off. It doesn't really hurt, just stings a little. Then over a couple of weeks new skin will grow up and it'll fall off with the dead burnt skin. Probably won't return, though some types of warts are hardy.
|
Just looks like a wart
expensive way of dealing with it? get it NO2'd off at a doctor.
cheap way of dealing with it? Put some duct tape on it for a week or so, then scrape the remains off with a toothpick or something, or just google "how to remove a wart with duct tape"
|
I don't know why people are looking at his growth when there's obviously a bigger problem at hand. If you look on his screen, he doesn't have his liquidbets in. He needs to get on that before worrying about his other mundane affairs.
|
A benign tumor? Definitely see a doctor
|
Sooo... my grandma was right. Don't play with your weewee!
|
grow another finger and increase your APM!
|
haha i got it too :D left hand but higher, mine is smaller but im going to take it off soon : P

let it be another finger...

do your liquibet first, you can cure this later
|
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.

Dig out out with a knife!!!
But really, you should go to a doctor....+ Show Spoiler +so he can dig it out with a knife
|
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 have it too, a lot smaller and a little bit lower than yours
|
Maybe you guys are long lost twins?
|
|
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
