Does anyone else have them?

I have calluses on the top finger joints of my index fingers, and less pronounced ones on my ring fingers from clapping and rubbing my hands in my slightly more grown up and restrained, toned down version of flapping.

Yes, I have stimming calluses---fingers---and now the doctor tells me I have Psoriasis---since this past summer. I don't know if the years of finger flapping have caused this or not.

I don't, but my son does on his thumb. The opposite of his nail, the whole top part. He said it was greenish so he quit for a while and now it's turning back to callus looking color. He bites his thumb while playing video games.

I have a largish permanent callus-like thingy on the outside of my right index finger where I used to dig my right thumbnail into it. It might win a prize if this was a contest Embarassed . I had others when I was younger, but they seem to have disappeared as my stimming became more controlled over time.

I have a large patch of callus on the right side of my left foot. I rub it with my right foot.
