Ortho Doctor.

I am now waiting for my turn to be examined by an ortho doctor. The first patient is inside and I am the third. Why am I here? Because late last year, I noticed a very small bump at the dorsal side of of my lefthand where you bend your wrist. It was small last year and I thought it might be a pimple. When it did not go away I thought it was a boil but it is not painful. Today it is still there but a bit bigger, just like the bone on the side of your wrists. When you look at it, it seems like I have two bones like ghat but the other one is in the middle. It is a cyst for sure. What kind or type, no idea.

If the bump is soft, it may be a sebaceous cyst which is easy to remove. I had one before so I know. Now I have one as big as a corn kernel on my arm, between the elbow and armpit, right on the bicep. But if the bump is hard, that I don't know.

@rakski if it's movable them more likely it is just a cyst. Okay, let's wait for the verdict of the ortho.

@DianneN it is a ganglion cyst and benign. It can be removed. I will have to schedule it

I hope it is nothing serious. Bumps can sometimes be very dangerous but some are just not serious and just some cyst that may either disappear in time.

Better to ask to the doctor to look at it, I hope it's something that can be removed.
