Is Lump Under Ring Finger A Sign Of Ganglion Cysts And Duputyren Disease?

Hello I found a small firm lump on my palm under my ring finger midway from the base of the finger and the palm crease. You are unable to see it just if you feel it .. I have been reading online about ganglion cysts and Duputyren disease.. But not sure what else it can be .. Any suggestions ? Thank you

Hello,
Welcome to health care magic.
Ganglion cyst usually occurs at the wrist above the palm.
From your description, it could be an early Duputren' s contracture.
You could consult an orthopedician for assessment and treatment.
Take care.
