A member asked:

At the bottom of my middle finger, there is a rock hard pea sized bump. it hurts when i grip on things or when i cross my middle finger behind my ring?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Bump: What you described sounds like a ganglion cyst which is a fluid filled collection in the wrist or hand area. It is not cancerous. Most go away with time. You can take NSAIDs such as Ibuprofen for pain. Immobilization is key as overuse can worsen symptoms. If no resolution or worsening symptoms I would follow up with your doc for assessment and treatment.
