What Causes A Small Lump On Wrist?
hi there, i have had a small lump under my skin on my wrist for a couple of months now - was tender to touch at start and hurts when i knock it but otherwise mostly painless. it can be moved around a little by touching with my finger and has no colour. every now and then it causes bruising to my hand above the lump - quite big and noticeable but not sore to touch?

hi.
based from your description, it might be a cyst (a sebaceous or a keratinous type) or a fibroma. it is best if you consult with a general surgeon for physical examination and possible surgical removal of the lesion.
hope this helps.
good day!!
