What Is Causing Lump On Thumbs?

I have noticed in the last few days a single small bump appearing on both thumbs, one on side of left hand and a cluster of three tiny ones on my right ring finger which has no ring on it. I wear no jewelry and lead a quiet life. I ve tried to guess if I ate something new lately, but everything has been the same. I read about a term called pompholyx, but still not sure. They don t hurt, but has been itchy if I touch them. I am healthy otherwise and am not sure what this might be.

HI.
Thanks for your query.
These are most probably viral warts.
Please do not cut or rub on them , they may spread.
There are solutions available to burn then slowly to get a cure.
