What is this lump?

Anyone know what this could be??

I thought a wart and have been using bazooka for 2 weeks now, not sure if it's actually doing anything

Blimey. I’ve no idea but it looks exciting!

NoCheaperTransactions · 09/11/2023 20:13

I am a total sporner but i would seriously not do anything else to it and go to a GP with hopefully a referral to a proper skin specialist.

AlwaysPrettyOnTheInside · 09/11/2023 20:46

I'd have to take a pair of tweezers to that and see if I could pull it out 🫣

sipsqueak · 09/11/2023 20:47

Er stop the bazooka and get yourself checked out.

How long has it be growing?

It might be the photos but your hands look quite chapped and have other lesions so I would seek a medical opinion if I were you.

That's just eczema, I've got cream for that already from gp

I would definitely go to the doctor with that.

Years ago I had a fleshy lump with a stalk on my thumb - it looked a bit like yours. It was a pyogenic granuloma. GP removed it and had to cauterise my thumb because it bled a surprising amount.

Thewolvesarerunningagain · 09/11/2023 22:35

I’d definitely be at the docs with that. It looks
raw and sore. :-(

MrsPelligrinoPetrichor · 09/11/2023 22:37

GP asap!

DisforDarkChocolate · 11/11/2023 20:19

GP is needed I think. My husband had a weird lump on his finger that was interesting enough for the consultant to ask permission to write an article on it.

Tilllly · 11/11/2023 20:44

Is there a pharmacy open near you tomorrow? I'd ask there

Yes
I had the exact same thing. This looks like on OP

LittleGreenDragons · 13/11/2023 14:02

I'm sorry OP, I don't know whether to be repulsed or excited 😮

Glad you've made a GP appointment and don't try and pull it off as it might be attached to your head. You don't want a crumpled face as well 😉

Just cleaned it with salt water as oozing out of plaster, if I don't have a plaster on it catches on everything.

Econsult said I should have a reply by 6:30pm Tuesday 😕

What is this lump?

Oh my God!!! What IS that?

Take your wedding ring off in case it swells

TheShellBeach · 15/11/2023 10:32

Hi OP - what did they say yesterday?

MBappse · 15/11/2023 10:36

Blimey OP, hope you got that sorted and its healing now. That looks really sore and a level or two above the usual Sporner Corner fare.

Swabbed and covered with antiseptic dressing.

Nurse is asking for a GP appointment to look at it

Good to hear that you will see a GP... although a bit surprised you didn't get that immediately they saw photos of it.
Is it still hanging off by a stalk? Is it painful? Sending healing....

WhiskersPete · 15/11/2023 20:18

I am invested in this now...

TheShellBeach · 15/11/2023 20:20

It looks awful. Is it painful?

GettinChillyHereFFS · 15/11/2023 20:34

Anyone else getting "how to get ahead in advertising" vibes? Is it talking to you yet op 🤭
