Not getting any wider. Clear delineation between normal skin and red skin. Blister in the middle is mostly gone.

Why don't you just go to the Dr already and put us out of our misery

I'm more in line to vote to pop it and see what happens.

Fun to see Darwinism in action.................

So three conspiracy theorists walk into a bar.................You can't convince me that's a coincidence.

I had something like that on my calf last year, but it was about twice the size. Just came up one day after working outside. I tried to pop it several times but nothing came out and it hurt like hell. I kept messing with it for a couple of weeks and it still stayed on my calf. One day one of my Boston Terriers started liking it and a hole opened up about 1/3 of an inch deep. After that, cleaned up and healed up nicely. I still have a brown scare the size of a quarter there, but it's gone.

Dogs are awesome.

Doesn't look much different today. I'm assuming it will scab up and a decent chunk of skin is dead. Will post pic updates as it changes

I'd pop that thing with a sterile needle, boil it out with peroxide and put some neosporin on it.
If you were a dog.

Back in the 70's seems like half our Jr high and high school football teams had multiple "boils" during the season. Things hurt and were nasty.

Anyway I had one near the tip of my finger. Finally went to the doctor. My 1st joint looked dead. Ended up losing the very tip top of my finger.

Go see the doctor!

Dang! Doesn't sound like you were on a jr high fb team. Sounds like you were in a civil war war battalion, losing parts of appendages and all!

Almost forgot about this thread but just checking to see if you're still alive?

Also…..do you have any guns your wife might want to get rid of if your finger plague winds up getting the best of you?

It still amazes me the show of brotherhood on this board and unselfish offers of help. Bravo

LOL, no, she is alive and kicking. It has been well documented the healing powers of a dogs saliva.
