What Causes Unusual White Patches On Index Finger And Middle Finger?

My son has started to get weird white blotches on his Index Finger and middle finger and on the top of his thumb. They are not painful, and it looks like it is a rash but then it is under the skin and looks almost like a blister. Very strange looking.

Hello,

They might be a viral infection mostly herpes simplex virus. It does not need treatment. It is self limited, no worries.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
