What Does A Deep Dent On The Hand Indicate?
Hello, I m a little concerned because I have a deep dent on my hand and it only happens when I bend it. At first, it wasn t very noticeable but after a while it got deeper. It hurts if I put a little force on it, but on its own, the pain isn t very strong. There s no bump next to the dent, though, so I m not sure if it s a ganglion cyst.. I want to know if it s something worth going to the doctor for before I waste my time.. think anyone can help? I really appreciate it.
