What Causes Bone-like Bump On The Hand For My 4 Year Old Son?

Hi there, my son has a hard bone-like bump on the top of his hand that occurred after hitting it at the park a week ago. I know it is correlated with the middle finger just by the movement of the bump when each of the flanges are moved. It does not seem to cause him any pain at all, he is 4!

Hello,

Your son might be suffering from a ganglion cyst and is easily treatable. This can easily be viewed with ultrasound. I suggest you to make an appointment with your doctor to confirm the condition and get treatment accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Sameen Bin Naeem, General & Family Physician
