Wart on Thumb
Hello,
I developed a white dot on my thumb went to a dermatologist and he said its a beginning of a wart and froze it off and gave me a cream. Few days later I developed ridges on my other fingers on the opposite side of my hand.
I have PTSD and OCD and trying to get back on my feet. I had a job interview that was successful for a real estate position. A position that requires a lot of shaking hands with strangers. Strangers saved my life after I was stabbed 5 times with a 13" knife a few years ago. I don't know if the ridges on my hands are warts. The doctor said the white dot isn't contagious anymore after treatment but he still needs to examine it. There wasn't a wart just a white dot that was a beginning of one.

Good for you. Too many people just sit back and don't do anything to help themselves and end up suffering needlessly.

If the doctor says it is nothing to worry about, then you need to find a way to let it go. If you can't let it go, then that is the time to seek professional help because your obsessing about it isn't going to go away on its own.
I haven't had an actual wart just this white dot on my thumb that hasn't changed in the last two weeks. I have applied the cream and the doctor froze it. I am still worried about spreading it. What should I do?
Yes, you are correct that warts can spread so keep it covered with a band-aid until it heals and you will have no problems.
Hello,
My dermatologist said its a wart
I don't want to spread it throughout my body or to other people and I don't know how to do that. I wash my hands a lot and change bandages over and over again its annoying me

I guess I am not getting what you are worrying about. It is a wart...are you afraid it is something else?
