Some patients will come and tell you that
''I read it on Facebook (social media) that i'm suffering from Ectopic pregnancy of the Radius" ! What does that even mean? 😅
Let's come back to this photo.
Just by looking at the swelling, what do you think it can be???🤔
For me, this swelling at the wrist joint in this patient is likely caused by either:
1) Ganglion cyst or
2) Bone tumor (rare)
3) Lipoma
4) Abscess
5) Radial artery aneurysm (rare)
Physical examination and/or laboratory tests will help to confirm the diagnosis
