Suggest treatment for a painful lump on the hand
Patient: I have a lump about the length of the palm of my hand and half inch above my knee cap. It didn t bother me before but since I started going to the gym 4 times a week for 2 hours a time I noticed it was restricting me. It starts to throb as I am working out. I have fh and I am taking rosuvastatin and ezetimibe along with colestogel I also suffer with pain in the hip on the same leg. I just want 2 check if it s something worth bothering my GP about or is it nothing. Would appreciate ur feed bak. Thank u x Doctor: hi.noted history of gym activity associated with lump in palm and over knee cap. these may be inflammatory reactions progressing to callous formation. try wearing protective gears, gloves and knee pads in your case. pain medications may also be of help. if you are bothered by the symptoms and is persistent, a consult with a doctor is best.hope this helps.good day!!~dr.kaye
