Hey everyone,
I've noticed for a while now that it's painful to use a knife with my right hand - when I press down on the handle, it hurts pretty badly, right where my index finger joins the palm (inner flat) of my hand.
Only last night did I realize by touching the area with my left hand, that there's a distinct hard bump that seems almost stuck or growing in the joint between the bottom of the finger and the top of the palm. Pushing on it hurts, like ow! It's quite small, it doesn't protrude visibly, but you can easily feel it. There's no pain when it's not being pressed on.
I know I should have it checked out, but until I do, has anyone got some thoughts about what it could be, or have you experienced something similar? Bone spur, calcium deposit, misplaced bone fragment from a mystery injury, or...?
Thanks for any suggestions. Cheers,
