Asking on here as google images is grim.

Basically on my forarm is a bump that looks like hardskin and is about 3/4mm around. It doesnt look cracky or warty but it feels like a hardish lump and the skins ever so slightly darkened / red

I bought some bazooka gel from boots but it says on the instructions not for use on warts with hairs growing from them .... I don't think its a wart.. it might be?! its been on my arm about a year now - doesnt give me any pain - cant see any black root or anything like... wtf is it!? can I bazooka gel? it doesnt say why not to use it if hair is growing from it?! its on my arm ffs of course I've got hair!

any wise wifes would be wkd 🙂

I'd set about it with a knife/soldering iron/nail clippers etc. I am not a doctor.

ok, if it has a hair growing from the middle of it, it is probably an infected follicle, just pop that mutha and be done with it. If it has an obvious "ball" underneath it then it is just a spotty fat lump thing and you can either dig it out or go to the doctor. If it doesn't hurt and isn't changing, leave it well alone and use it to scare children.

Me, I've got a weird nipple my wrist. I like to rub it for good luck.

Ganglion? Fatty deposit around nerves sometimes disperses if squashed?
Dunno, we are mountain bikers not doctors.
