Could Lump On The Top Of Wrist Indicate Sign Of Cancer?
I have a lumg on the top of my wrist which appeared several weeks ago. My doctor did an x ray which was non conclusive, and has ordered an MRI. The lump is just under the skin and on the "pinky" side of my wrist. It is slightly tender to the touch. I am quite nervous about the possiblities. Could this be cancer?

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You may have some soft tissue tumor like lipoma, neurofibroma or dermatofibroma.
You should go for fine needle aspiration cytology or biopsy of that lump.
It will give you exact diagnosis. Then you should take treatment accordingly.
