Suggest Treatment For A Painful Lump On The Palm
I have a hard bony lump on the little finger side of the bottom of my right palm, the size of a pea.. It s hard, bony and very different from my left hand. I m very right handed. It is getting red and sore because it s the part of the hand I lean on desk when, say, using a mouse. It s like a bunion on my wrist. The wrist is very crunchy and clicky on manipulation. Help..? Thank you

Based On the facts, You mostly seem to suffer from-
Flexor Tenosynovitis with Palmar Bursitis on ulnar side.-Crunchy wrist indicates tenosynovitis / with flexor carpi ulnaris bursitis.
Other causes such as sesmoid bone/ bone dysplasias/ rehuematoid nodule/Ganglion from flexor tendons,gouti tophi?
