But now I have one behind mine which is about the size of a quarter and it hurts really bad!! I can't tell if it's just an ingrown hair or something, or maybe a cyst. Or maybe a lymph node that's blocked...but it's really bothering me! I also have numb fingertips...only on my left ring finger and pinky. What's going on??? I'm taking tetracycline for my face. Could it be the antibiotics??? I've always heard to take acidophillus when you take antibiotics...do you think I should?? Urgghhh it's late..or early..and I can't sleep! -------------------- Rae SAHM to Wil (4) and Wesley (2) ~ Wife to Richard 10/20/01

I am actually going to be having surgery on my right hand to release a tendon or nerve or something (I pay so much attention) It is like carpel tunnel but on the other side of your hand. Good luck.. Get the bump checked out, just to be safe. -------------------- Amy, Mom to Kayla, 9 Noah, 6 Nicholas 2

I would get it checked out, that's got to be uncomfortable. The hand thing sounds unrelated, but I would mention the drugs you're taking when and if you go to the dr. Good luck, I'm sure it's nothing. -------------------- Jeanne "Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Chardonnay in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO, What a Ride!"

I do think the finger numbness is carpel tunnel. I have pain in my wrist too at times. It comes and goes.

Yes, the bump just sprung up over the last weekend. That's why I think it may just be an ingrown hair or something or knowing my skin, just maybe a zonker zit!! But it's really really tender. I'll make an appt...thanks!!!!
