Brief Answer:
visit a surgeon for confirmation of diagnosis
Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXX, welcome to HCM and thanks for choosing us.
I share your concerns about haematoma on your hand. You need to get it examined by a surgeon for its assessment and diagnosis. Or post a photograph for better advise. Generally haematoma happens on injury and is painful. So you need to first confirm the diagnosis. It could be a ganglion too.
However if it is bigger and causing problems to you, you can get it removed. It would be a minor surgery. Both haematoma and ganglion can be removed by simple surgery.
I hope my reply will help you. Please write to us for follow up queries. I wish you good health. Thanks
