How Can A Lump On The Palm Be Treated?
I have a lump that has developed in the palm of my right hand. It is underneath the skin and has progressively gotten larger. It started out very small, about half the size of a pea, and now after a couple of years it is about the size of a dime. It's not painful but I'm just curious about whether or not it's something I need to have checked out since it is increasing in size. Thank you for any help you can give me.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
As per my surgical experience, this lump suggests callus in palm.
I would suggest to consult your surgeon for figuring out proper management guidelines.
Till that time, immersion of palm in lukewarm water will support.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
