Wrist lump( i don't know)

Posted , 3 users are following.

Hello, can you help me what is this that's grown in my left wrist.

I have this for a while now. It only hurts when i touch it. And i don't have money to have a check up for a doctor.

As you can see from the photos. The left wrist is very different from the right wrist. I marked red on the affected area. Please help me identify this. Thank you.! image

    I would say its a ganglion. Totally harmless. Its just a collecton of fluid around a joint. No need to remove unless it gets huge or is very painful. They often just disappear on their own,although this can take some time
