General Surgeon 's  Response
hi.

it is best if you consult with a doctor, preferably a general surgeon or an orthopedic surgeon, for medical and physical examination. based from your description, it could be a tendon or a ganglion cyst. management (medical and surgical) will be directed accordingly.

hope this helps.

good day!!
