What type of doctor should I go see?

Question

I noticed a small lump on my wrist today. It is a bit smaller than a dime and it is under the skin. When I first saw it I thought it was my bone sticking out, but it is right above the bone where my wrist bends. It is on the palm side of my hand. It feels like it is a bruise but it is just a lump. there is no discoloration. Who do I go see?

Answer 1

i have had that too its nothing. but if you insist on seeing a doctor id go see your regular primary physician.

Answer 2

Start with your normal primary care physician (PCP).  Then see aq specialists if he or she refers you to one.

Answer 3

It's probably nothing, maybe a cyst which won't harm you, it is just bothersome.

Absolutely go see your primary doctor. This of course, is always the first step.
