Alternate Treatment For A Lump On The Hand Due To An Injection In Wrong Place?
My mom got an injection injected by a physician on her hand and now that area where the injection had been injected has swollen and has formed a hard lump, according to the doctor it has been injected in the wrong place and it would require a surgery to remove it. Can this be easily treated?

Hello!
Thank you for the query.
It all depends how long is this lump present. If the injection was recently done (few days ago), there is a chance that the lump will disappear by itself. However if the lump is present for months, surgery can be the only way to get rid of it.
Hope this will help.
Regards.
