What Is The Treatment For Lump On Both The Wrists?

Hi, I have a lump on both my wrists and on my right hand every couple of months it gets guide painful. It feels like a bone and I can't use my hand properly when I get the pain. Do you know what it could be and what I can do to get ride of it instead of wearing a bandage every month?

Hi. These look to be ganglion. They are usually self limiting. Occasionally they cause more pain and restrict the movements of the wrist indicating too much pressure inside. Consult an Orthopedic Surgeon for confirmation of diagnosis and treatment.
He may inject steroid or advise you an excision. There are high chances of recurrence.
