• A firm bump which appears on the fingers or toes
• May be surrounded by a thin layer of dry skin around the base, known as a “collarette”
• Is not cancerous and never develops into a skin cancer
• May be tan, pink, or flesh-coloured
• Is not due to diet or sun damage
• Is not a wart or due to the HPV virus

[av_toggle title=’Treatment’ tags=”]

• Removal with a simple, small, surgical procedure produces the best result
  • The skin adjacent to the acquired digital fibrokeratoma is injected with a local anesthetic to numb the area
  • The lesion is removed and the base treated with electrocautery so that it does not bleed
  • Stitches are not necessary
  • The removal is not painful
  • A bandage with antibiotic ointment will be applied
  • After the procedure you may bathe normally
  • For 2 weeks after the procedure, apply a small amount of antibiotic ointment
  • The bandage should be changed daily
  • After an acquired digital fibrokeratoma has been removed a crust or scab will form
  • The crust will heal and leave a pink mark that will gradually fade
  • After the removal, there may be a residual white mark
  • There is a small chance that the acquired digital fibrokeratoma could grow back

• There is no cream at this time that will remove acquired digital fibrokeratomas and there is no way to prevent them from developing
• Treatment of acquired digital fibrokeratomas is not covered by OHIP or private health insurance
• A referral from a doctor is necessary to make your first appointmen
