How To Get Rid Of Small Pea Sized Lump Under Thumb?
Hi I have a small pea sized lump under the skin on the pad of my left thumb. It does not hurt but it is VERY hard. I think it may be a calcium deposit, because I had one of those about a year ago and I cut it out of my arm. How do I get rid of it or find out what it is?

Hi.
This can be a dermoid.
Again the best treatment is surgical excision under local anesthesia. This is a simple Out-door procedure and a sure-shot way to get rid of the lump.
Go for surgery as this area needs precision work.
Please do not try home remedies.
