A few years ago I developed a strange skin
pattern on the palm of my hand. It
basically looks like a small raised
circle, a few millimetres in diameter.
After having shower/bath, it can be peeled
off but always grows back. Recently a
second one has appeared about an inch from
the first one, and I think I can see some
other tiny ones appearing too. It doesn't
hurt but I'm worried that it's a fungal
infection or a viral thing or something.
Anybody know? I'd like to get rid of
them.
Thanks.

It is really difficult to diagnose skin
conditions without looking at them. There
may be a possibility that it is a wart as
they have irregular patterns. Perphas if
you could provide a picture, a better
diagnosis could be provided. If it is a
wart and is not causing any problems then
it is best left untreated. Again a picture
would really help. Also you could check
out the dermatology atlas at the link
mentioned below to compare your skin
condition with the ones present. http://dermatlas.med.jhmi.e
du/derm/. Try looking at pictures of
warts. Otherwise browse through it and
reply with an image which looks similar to
your condition. The best thing would be to
take a picture and post it.

After having re read your post I doubt it
is a post becuase you are saying that it
peels off. Warts do not peel of. Please do
provide a picture because proper diagnosis
of skin conditions depend on picture.
