Palmar fibromatosis: The palms of your hands are comprised (under the skin) of mostly tendons. It may be that you are seeing nodules on those tendons due to inflammation. Talk to your PCP for an examination and to discuss underlying causes of inflammation. Non treatment can result in difficulty moving fingers as the "knots" will not allow normal movement of the tendons withing their sheaths.
