Suggest Treatment For Swollen And Painful Lump On The Hand
Lump on the hand. I hit the back of my hand against a board training kickboxing. At first the whole back of the hand got swollen. Put ice on it. Two days later there s a lump remainig, size of a bean. Cannot close my hand completely. Should I keep putting ice and taking antiinflammatories?

Hello dear Greetings
Regarding your symptoms of swollen and painful lump on the back side of your hand I am suggesting that you have developed a cellulitis
In view of this please do a hand x-ray to rule out this condition
Meanwhile see an orthopaedic specialist with the result and for further expect clinical assessment and adequate drug prescription
Moreover you will benefit from the following
Adequate physiotherapy
I hope this helps
