Odd skin discoloration?
Hi patient I'm sorry to hear that, but this can be anything and just by looking at this picture I really can't tell you what it is. My question to you is what kind of wash detergent do you use?I would suggest you change it and also use some anti bacteria soap to see how it would help. Due to no itch or burn and it's been there over a month it can be an allergic reaction to something. I don't recommend that you go in see a PCP if it gets worse or don't go away soon. READ MORE

Can hpv transmit through metal surface to skin?
The virus is only killed by Freezing them or liquid nitrogen,and typically the HPV survive just two to three hours outside the human body,You cannot get HPV from toilet seats, hugging or holding hands, swimming in pools or hot tubs, or sharing food or utensils.The route of HPV transmission is primarily through skin-to-skin or skin-to-mucosa contact.Also due to you cleaning it with 70% ethanol that does not mean that the virus is not present.I would recommend you watch the ear that you used that tool in to make sure that the warts are not growing.An any case if you need me I would prescribed you some Podofilox Condylox to help stop the growth of the virus.
