Vertical lines on thumb
Hello doctors, I noticed a parallel vertical light black lines on my left thumb about a month ago. It's still there as it is. It is NOT thick, but it is very thin (Like a tread). They do not pain or have changed any colour. From a distance it just looks like ridges, but if I examine nearby, then I can see the lines. They are not there in any other fingers. What could this be? Vitamin deficiency? I consulted Primary care physician and he told that's nothing. What could it be?

It may be mild allergy to something you are coming in contact with regularly. This is just an assumption. I can only tell you what it is if i see it in person. You could fix an appointment with me on Practo or by searching for my profile on Google. Warm regards. Dr. Rajdeep Mysore. Chirag Hospital Bangalore
