Pea Sized Growth On Upper Side Of Wrist, Occasionally Paining, Growth Doesn't Move. Suggestions?
Hi, I have had a pea sized (and roundish shaped) growth on the underside of my wrist for a few years now. On occasion I will have light pain in the area for no reason. It lies very close to the veins in my wrist. It doesn't seem to have grown much over the years. I saw a GP about it and they told me it doesn't seem to be a Ganglion Cyst as I thought it might be. Should I just forget about it and put up with the occasional pain? Should I be concerned that the growth doesn't move around when pushed to aside?
