Very simply, what you are doing is restricting blood flow and oxygen to your apendage, In this case your finger. As a result blood and oxygen is decreased from travelling from arteries and veins,to arterioles and venules in your finger causing the yellow and white appearance you stated. In the case of complete stoppage of blood and oxygen flow to any area of the body will lead to ischemia ( Tissue death), and gangrene, resulting in a dark and then to black discoloration.

How do you finger yourself hard?

If you are a girl that wants to finger your own vagina you have to be willing! First, you need to get COMPLETELY naked. Second, you should lay down to do it. Third, start with one finger and move ur way up to two finger. To start off you need to masturebate a little before you go into your vagina. Try watching some porn videos or rubbing yourself really hard and fast. After that, you can start opening your legs wide and just push and push and push really hard with your finger. Once your finger is up yourself, wiggle your finger around and just have fun with it!
