What Causes Recurrent Hard Bumps Inside The Wrist?

I work in the restaurant industry, every now and then I get a bump on the inside of my wrist. It feels hard to the touch and is not reddened or painful. They will go away after a few weeks, then reappear. I have been getting them for years. What is this.
