I have what i think is tendons that have grown on both wrists, in line with index finger, if i had my phone i'd snap a pic. Sometimes i get these bumbs on my forearms if they get really pumped. Could be a lipoma though. Which is just fatty tissue. I had one removed right from the crown of my head back in September. Let me grab my phone i'll snap a pic and of my wrist. tried to get a good angle. Edited March 5, 2023 by Blacksmith513 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C8Myotome Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 Dorsal interossei muscles 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Climber028 Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 Yup, just muscles as already answered. Contrary to popular misconception, the hand does contain muscles not sure why this is such a prevalent idea. These muscle groups of the palm and thumb are responsible for most of what gives some people thicker hands, so yes you can get thicker hands if that's a desire they just need to be trained like any other muscle. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks man, always knew that was the case but seeing them as bumps and not fully understanding the hand muscle anatomy made me wonder With that said @C8Myotome filled me in on the anatomy part, thanks aswell pal and everyone else that shared their toughts 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right, it could be something non-muscular...you'd really have to have someone qualified to look at it in person to make an actual decision about what it truly is, which if it was something painful then it would be a good idea to go to a doctor. A cyst could be non-painful too so who knows. I never even though try to look at my interossei until this post either 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucasraymond Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 IMO it looks more like a ganglion cyst (aka Bible Bump)…mine goes between non-painful (99% of the time) and rarely painful. When it gets sore I will generally release it with my R thumb to relieve it. It has been there for 20 years and overall causes almost no issue. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My bro and sister have gotten those in that exact spot, now that I think about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slazbob Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 From the side I can see the bump, but the OP seems lower…so could be like Luke’s 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdriaanRobert96 Posted March 7, 2023 Author Share Posted March 7, 2023 It was for sure a funny chat here when I got back With that said.. These small bumps that I got only show when I make a fist, they don’t hurt and they’re hard at the touch (when flexed). Got em on both left and right.
