What Causes Circular Red Lump On Wrist?
I was just sitting down watching tv and I a lump in my wrist caught my eye. I look down and it s not just a circle bump like a bite or anything. It looks and feels like my vein is popping out. I put ice on it and it s not a tad swollen, red, itchy and still popping out. Any thoughts?

Hello,
You told no red, itchy or swollen which meant no pain i assumed. it may be ganglion cyst. it is nothing but fluid filled lump on muscle tendon. If it is no pain no treatment need. if it is painful consult an orthopedic surgeon.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. ARUN P
