What Causes Arm Pain And Lump On Underside Wrist?

I'm 24, I turn 25 tomorrow and have severe pain in my left arm. It started off as a small lump on the underside of my wrist with a dull burning pain that lump is now approximately 2 inches long and goes out toward my ulna. The pain is now worse and throbbing and I have 2 more lumps and the muscles feel flat.

-I would advise you not to worry still.In my opinion -lump of 2 inches is-boil with growing infection-as its severly painful.Or / it could be due to the Acute Ganglion- being on the extensar/dorsal- side of wrist-as told by you.
Accompanying 2 lumps may be ganglion or may be boils.
-Remedy-a-Consult a ER Surgeon.
-If it worries You,then EXcision Biopsy of Ganglion / or-Tb NSAIDs,Antibiotics and SOS-Incision and drainage of the Acute abscess of the wrist Boil-would be the treatment from the ER surgeon and would relieve your worry.
