Strange white spot on skin.

2018-02-11 04:42:24
Strange white mark appeared in my fiancé’s finger. It almost looked like she had rubbed up against white paint, or smeared whiteout on it. Alcohol, soap, and scrubbing hard nothing managed to take it out. I finally took a nail file and managed to rub it away. Any idea what could have caused this? Probably about an inch by half inch mark.
