? Ganglion: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without examining you. What you described suggest a ganglion. A benign swelling that may resolve on its own. If the pain has lasted more than two weeks, it would be prudent to see your doctor. See this site for more info and you may google "ganglion" to see pictures http://www.Mayoclinic.Com/health/ganglion-cysts/ds00767.
