How To Treat A Tension Inducing Lump In The Wrist?
Dear Doctor.. I have this little lump like structure under my skin on my left arm (upwards of the area where we tie watch). On touching, its looks like a fat deposit. It's been there for about 3-4 years with no pain etc. But, for the last 1 month or so, I feel some kind of tension in that area.. as if it is pulling through. Can you guide as to what it is?
Hi. Thanks for your query. Clinically , as per your description and development of tension, this looks to be a ganglion. There are various treatment options available like operating to excise it completely, aspirating and injecting steroids and so on. Please discuss with your Orthopedic Surgeon and follow his advise.
