Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Was petting dog the other day and and a huge bump suddenly popped up on my hand. Looked like a cyst almost an 1/2 to 1 high. Iced it and it went down. Next day was bruised over entire top of hand with soreness at site or original bump. Spider bite? Should I see a doctor?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, such swelling could be due to infection, if first appears with induration later puss start forming, right now it can be managed with anti-inflammatory drug later antibiotic can be administered, you can see the doctor for final diagnosis, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
