Suggest Treatment For Lump In Palm Of Hand

I have a small "lump" in the palm of my right hand just below the knuckles. It doesn't hurt but is gradually increasing in size, currently 10mm in diameter but does not protrude to that extent. It's on my right hand, with which I operate a computer mouse at work. Ideas please.

General Surgeon 's  Response
hi.

it is best if you consult with a doctor, preferably a general or an orthopedic surgeon, for medical and physical examination. based from your description, it could be a tendon cyst. management (medical and surgical) will be directed accordingly.

hope this helps.

good day!!
