What Is The Reason For White Spots On Finger?

Hello. I recently noticed little brown spots on my right index & middle finger, I don t know how I got them but I have recently been taking erythromycin for a chest infection. Would the brown spots on my fingers be a side effect of the medication?

Hi..

No brown spots on fingers are not side effects of erythromycin.

Most probably it may be solar keratosis. Kindly consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment.

Ok

Thanks
