What Is A Little Lump On The Vein Of Wrist Suggestive Of?

Hi I do have a little lump and it seems to be located on my wrist vein. It feels soft and doesn’t cause any pain. I have been having it since I remember and it doesn’t get any bigger or smaller. Can you please tell me why what is it ? Many thanks Anna

Hello,

I suspect it as Ganglion Cyst. Although, I would like to give a test so that it can be confirmed:

USG of the lump. I would also like to ask:

1. Do you feel tingling sensation or numbness?
2. Is it hot when touched?

Although till now there is no pain, if there is a pain, you can take Ibuprofen 300 mg.

It can go away without any interference. Or if it causes any problem to you or pain starts, please refer to the surgical clinic for removal.

Do not worry and if you have any update to tell, please do inform us and a doctor can guide you on what to do next.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr Dipan Samanta, General & Family Physician
