I've developed a strange lump on my wrist (the top side) which I think is due to some injury although I'm damned if I can figure out what I did. Anyway, this is causing pain around the wrist whenever I bend it past a few degrees upwards. I went to a chinese doctor and he said that it is like a water pocket which has formed after the injury. Not sure if he really meant water or puss to be honest. Anyway, he put one of those great smelling big plasters on it which helped and reduced the size slightly but he also says that given enough pressure he could just burst it.
My question is, does this seem like a good idea, or would it be better to see a western doc and see what their approach would be? Hoping it'll go away on it's own is starting to be less of an option as I'm starting to get a tingling sensation in my thumb which could be related.
Any ideas?
