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.
