Hello, I'm inquiring about a seemly insignificant growth on my boyfriend's hand. He is 23, and assumingly healthy; maybe a little mal-nurished. It's on his right hand, middle finger, knuckle (where the finger connects with the palm/hand). It's round, hard, doesn't hurt unless irritated, pimple/zit like growth; but it won't pop and he's had it for the past 3-5 months. It started small and has grown approximately 3x the size it started at, but is still relatively small (like a circular letter button on a blackberry phone). He says it didn't use to hurt when annoyed, but now it does; today we're just a little extra concerned because to the both of us it appears to have grown over night. I've looked at a few things on the web and most seems to point towards skin cancer.. Any more ideas..??
Sincerely concerned
