Anyone?

It appeared day before yesterday. Looked a bit like a blood blister when it first popped up. It's since flattened a bit, faded then a new tiny blood spot has surfaced which feels 'open' . It's slightly sore . I've had something similar on my toes in the past and on my thumb. Posting in Raynaud's forum too.

Maybe you could have caught it on something ?

Suppose it could be circulation but it does look more like a catch from this photo . Look after yourself xx

yes, I think it is probably the Raynaud's. It came up some time during feeding the chickens, having a shower and breakfast. Although I only get it on the right hand and this is the left. Also it's been so mild I haven't really had a problem with Raynaud's at the moment.

Looks like a blood blister to me....are you sure you haven’t prodded your finger by accident? I get then a bit when gardening as bish and bash myself (clumsy) and then they appear later when I’ve forgotten I’ve bashed myself.

I get these and had quite a few at one time when my RA was uncontrolled. They seem to come and go, I also have raynauds. My rheumatologist was a bit non plussed, but I don’t have much faith in him sadly so I’ve just got in with it, they are better now

Hi Domhem - sorry it's taken a while to respond: the dot, although much smaller now, is still there. It and the surrounding area are very hard. weird. Definitely was not an injury.

Yes mine do too, I don’t know what they are, I thought it was just inflammation to be honest
