What is this bump on my finger?
I have a strange bump on my pinky. Images of it can be seen here:
https://ibb.co/bV6oFa (close)
https://ibb.co/hv1ATv (farther out, for scale)
https://ibb.co/ho4VTv (right after showering, so you can better see the white divider between the two pockets, which runs vertically, and is a little bit more distinct than the pictures show)
The bump is somewhat strange. It's a raised area of my finger, which holds two red pockets, separated by a white divider. At the time, I was in the country of Colombia when I first noticed it, about six weeks ago. I don't know what might have caused it. Initially thought it might *possibly* be some sort of blood blister, and, once the skin broke (after a couple of weeks), I started applying aloe vera to it regularly, but that doesn't seem to have had an effect. Overall, it hasn't really changed much since I first noticed it. It used to hurt a little bit to put pressure on it, but not anymore.
Does anyone know what it might be?
