Bruise On Knuckles After Hand Got Hurt. Lump Has Formed And Painful. What Is It?
A day or two ago I must have hit my hand against something and a bruise formed between my knuckles between the index and middle finger . Since I m on Plavex, it bruised rather badly. Now, after two days, a small peas sized lump has formed in that area (bruising has subsided), and it s a little painful to the touch. Any guess as to what it is? THANKS

Hi welcome to HCMForum. It might be a prick bite or as you have said a hit. led to secondary infection.
the swelling must be full of pus hence painfull. I advise you to consult a surgen for treatment. incision
and drainage may be necesory. thank you.
