Have A Greenish Lump On Finger. Had Pain On Elbow. Cause And Cure?
Hi Prasad, I have a greenish lump the size of a small pea on my pointer finger . It doesnt hurt if left alone but when I press on it and move it around I feel very little pain. I m able to do my normal routine such as write and i do write a lot at work. Before this lump I experienced pain on my elbow but that s gone now. Emma H.

Hello
Thanks for posting a query . I would be pleased to answer the same .
Your condition seems to a wart or a ganglion or a epidermal cyst .
You will need to get it checked from the Dermatologist who might suggest electrocautery for the removal of the cyst . If on clinical examination it is a Ganglion , then the Orthopedic doctor will need to be shown . .
Thanks and Take care
