A member asked:
Tiny hard knot in the side of my wrist. not protruding,not growing, hard as a brick and stuck to the bone. doesn't move. will a brace help? bone spur?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: No, a brace would be unlikely to help with what you are describing. It could very well be a bone spur. I would not hesitate to be seen and evaluated for an accurate diagnosis.
