What could be the cause of a painful lump near the wrist area? (photo)

Doctor's Answer

Unfortunately, the swelling is not very obvious from the clinical photograph. I think for a proper diagnosis, you should get this checked out by your doctor.

Some comon causes of swelling around the wrist include a ganglion. But you will require a close examination to make the diagnosis.
