Suggest Remedy To Get Rid Of Painful Lump On Hand

i have a small lump on my hand which is on the bone. It was caused by an impact which resulted in a bruise all across my hand. I went to the hospital as i was worried that it was broke, the doctor said it was only bruising. I still have concerns as the lump has not gone and hurts a lot when it is knocked. What do i do to get rid of it?

Hi,DEAR,Good Evening,Thanks for the query.I studied it in details and understood your health concerns regarding it.
Lump caused on your wrist bone-is a Resolving Heamatoma with infection or a fibrosing Hematoma- with crack fracture?as its painful.
I would advise xray wrist-to fix the diagnosis-
-Non-Surgical Treatment of the bony lesion with hematoma- by NSAIDs and antibiotics,if needed is tried to start with.
If it does not go away then Surgical tratment would be needed from ER Surgeon as follows-
Treatment would depend on the cause-
a-Your ER Surgeon would -i- Aspirate it and treat it by antibiotic cover to wait for the healing .
ii-If it does not heal and grows in size-Hematoma-? or the fibrosed hematoma-could be drained / or Surgical Excision done.
Hope this would help you to plan the treatment with your doctor.
Wellcome for any further query in this regard.
Wishing you good health.
Good Night.
