I have a white pimple like stuff on the back side of my finger. Earlier also in the same place it happened, but it was gone on it's own. Now again it appeared, but now it's not going away. It's generally not painful, but when pressed it hurts. Can anyone suggest what should I do?

First thought is spider bite since the wound appears dry and the surrounding area is dark. Not sure why that would seem to go away though. Another concern would be diabetes as a cause for the wound not healing. Can you apply antibacterial and keep it covered? If it doesn't improve a trip to the doc might be in order. I know that's expensive for such a small thing, but they will be able to treat this and put your mind at ease.
You might have some scar tissue from a small cut you got.
This sometimes happens if you get a small splinter under the skin.
If it shows any signs of heavy infection then you should see a doctor so they can get a better look at your problem.
it sounds to me too like you at some poitn got a splinter or even a tiny piece of glass in there and it just never really came out. YOu could try to have it removed though I believe eventually your body will 'process' it.
No.. It completely went away once and now it has again happened almost after a year..
There is probably an infection and that's why it came back. The problem is that there is a lot of MRSA getting into cuts and sores. I would call the doctor and see if he wants to culture the white stuff. I had a small one of these on my back I would drain it and it would be gone for a while sometimes up to 2 years I finally got sick and tired of it coming back I call my doctor and sure enough it had MRSA in it and he said I have probably have had this infection for the entire time since the very first time it looked like a pimple too.
That is so odd, what I mean is, I have the same thing on my right index finger and almost in the same place (mines just a hair above
where yours is) on my finger.
And it "acts like a pimple, but yet it seems to come back and go away for a time, then come back again".
I've looked at fungus and also warts. I to this day, still don't know what it is. Sometimes I'll "pluck it" with tweezers, and it leaves a tiny hole for a day, then it's back to normal for only a while, as it grows right back again.
Does yours hurt? Mine doesn't, it's just "a very rough spot there on my finger" sort of like a pointed or (pimple callus) is what it's like, and it's been doing this "there then gone thing"
for a couple of years now.
