Overgrowth Between Left Thumb And Forefinger. The Lump Broke With Loud Sound. Uncomfortable. Suggest

I have had a Chat type of growth about the size of a huge marble in between my left thumb and forfinger for about four years. NOTHING would pop it and it didn't really ever hurt. Recently I was bending over the bathtub with my breasts ontop of the rim of the Turbo thus all pressure on my ribs (I have extreamly large breasts). I was upset and scrubbing vigerously when there was a LOUD pop and what felt like either a break but more like an explosion at the top of my ribcage. It hurt but there was almost a sense of relief or release accompanied with the pain. As the day went by it basically felt as though I had cracked a rib except I could breath in without it hurting which is my experience with cracked ribs. Two days go by with pain at about leval six. Third day I happened to notice the huge cystic type thing on my hand was gone!!! There is no way I wouldn't have known that thing burst except that rib cracking experience. I have noticed an uncomfortable feel

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello.
Thank for the query.
Sometimes the wasp sting remains in the wound.
This causes intense inflammation.
The resulting blistering and ulceration is due to this.
The sting must be removed and you need treatment with anti inflammatory and analgesics.
Let me know if you have any other doubts. You can also ask me a direct query on this forum.
Thank you
I find this answer helpful
