Hi! thanks for your health queries.

After going through your description, I could get that these are actually kind of degenerative or chronic inflammatory pathology related to excessive minor works / loads! And as per our clinical experience the possibilities are as follows:

1. a ganglion cyst 40 % cases

2. a bursa 40 % cases

3. arthritis 15 % cases

4. chronic inflammatory or allergic pathology 5% cases.

Only x-ray and a needle biopsy is all that are required for a confirmation.

Therefore don't worry but see a surgeon for an examination and open discussion.

regards,
