What Is The Bruise Like Lump On My Left Hand Which Is Tender Sometimes?

I have a bruise like lump on my left hand. It is directly below the knuckle of my pinky finger. I have no recollection of ever injuring that spot. I assumed it was a bruise, but it's been there for almost a month now. It's really tender at times, but only when I pay it attention.

General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi.
This may be a granuloma, it is sometimes very painful even on touch.
I would advise you to see a Surgeon who would help you in diagnosis and more important to get this removed and get a histological diagnosis , as this is always a final decision.
