I'm noticing a black spot on my left index finger that's super hard, and it's got this numb feeling. There aren't any other weird symptoms going on, but I'm wondering what could be causing this. Any ideas?

The black spot on your index finger, accompanied by hardness and numbness, could be caused by various factors, including a benign growth like a wart or seborrheic keratosis, a skin condition like melanosis or acral lentiginosis, or even a more serious condition like skin cancer, so it's essential to consult a dermatologist for a proper examination, diagnosis, and appropriate treatment.
