Chewing My Finger?

[DarkWolfGal]

So, I've been chewing my index finger on my left hand for years. It normally do it when I'm stressed or bored and I don't notice I'm doing it most of the time. Because I've been doing it for so long, layers of skin have built up on my finger making it look swollen and deformed. I've tried cutting into it but it's just skin. It's so bad that I hate showing my hand to people and always end up hiding it. What can I do? I've tried not chewing it for a while but it won't go away!

It sounds like something my friend's baby does.

Well, it is what it is. if you continue doing it it will only get bigger and look more deformed.
I doubt it will go away, but if you stop doing it, it won't get worse.

I use to have a thick layer of skin on one of my fingers from playing clarinet I just cut off the extra skin and it was as good new. It didn't hurt cause it was just skin. Maybe go see a Doctor to surgeticly remove it.

Ask your doctor.
