What could be the cause of a painful lump near the wrist area? (photo)

Doctor's Answer

Lumps can be from different causes:

1. Skin

2. Soft tissue

3. Bones

4. Joints

Common causes around the wrist are ganglions and these can cause pain at times. It maybe worth visiting a MSK/Sports Physician for an assessment and sameday ultrasound assessment before deciding on further treatment.

Hope this helps.
