I have a hard knot on the side of my wrist that is not sore to touch but does cause pain up into my thumb when counting money or using a touch phone?

Wrist lump: This could be a ganglion cyst or bone spur which may compress the nerve going to the thumb on certain motions. My advice is to consult a hand surgeon for evaluation, advice and treatment,if needed.
