It was fiberous stuff attached that formed a hard lump. Mine was wrapped around the nerves, so it took some work by the surgeon to remove it without damaging my finger (hand quilting finger).

I thought he would take it off in the office but believe that’s a thing of the past. <br />I had to go to the hospital, put under conscious sedation,and when I came out, my whole hand was wrapped so couldn’t use it and in a sling. It was a gangling cyst and he said it was got into the upper joint of my finger and my nail bed. Turned into a big deal. Don’t wait. It can turn into a 3 month nightmare.mine was on my right forefinger.Lois M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12627304166177597774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-41594449014218458972020-10-21T06:46:28.375-04:002020-10-21T06:46:28.375-04:00A mucous cyst is caused by trauma & wearing a ...A mucous cyst is caused by trauma & wearing a thimble might be considered trauma if worn frequently.

It was a ganglion cyst after all, and I had it surgically removed. Usually, a ganglion cyst is directly over a joint, as it is synovial fluid leaking from the joint, but the fluid sometimes does migrate. That is what I was told by the doctor. Other than that, if it is at all red and painful it could be what is called a paronychia, which is a localized infection usually located near a fingernail or toenail. Using that finger constantly with a thimble has caused some kind of irritation, whatever it it.waltonenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12046193527370159254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-4379826905821932342020-10-20T12:55:36.998-04:002020-10-20T12:55:36.998-04:00I had that kind of cyst on my left middle finger. ...I had that kind of cyst on my left middle finger.

She thought it was too smooth to be a wart, When I told them it was on your thimble finger my son said it could be caused by friction from the thimble. So probably not too helpful but you may have to go to the doctor to find out what it really is.
