If you want to continue playing guitar, deal with it. I like to play with my calluses.

I've never had problems with fingertips, but my thumb starts killing me after playing too much warehouse or any other song involving inhumane stretches of the hand.

That's good!

Gotta' make those fingers lethal weapons my friend, keep it up!

Soon you will be able to break glass merely with your hardened finger tips.

Play with different parts of your fingertips.

Wash your hands more often, but don't play the day you plan to do this or you'll wear off the skin. Playing softly should be fine, though.

The buzzing could be that your truss rod needs adjustment and not that your fingers are indented.

heres how to fix it if you need help

Also, the buzzing could be if you strings are too small. I had this problem as my stings were 10's then I switched to 11's and it got rid of the problem.
