Small pimples on the child's wrist

Children's wrists are very likely to be injured due to frequent activities. Sometimes, children may have problems with their wrists due to carelessness. Some parents have found small bumps on their children's wrists. This does not rule out the possibility of tenosynovitis cysts, so it should be prevented as early as possible, and checked and treated in time. Let’s take a look at what causes small bumps on children’s wrists.

It is considered to be a tendon ganglion cyst, which refers to a benign mass containing gelatinous mucus that occurs near the joint capsule or tendon sheath. The mass is hemispherical, with a smooth and plump surface, no adhesion to the skin, and is hard and elastic to the touch. It may feel cystic, with a fixed base, and may feel sore or painful when pressed. The best treatment currently is surgery.

To prevent tenosynovitis, you should pay attention to maintaining the correct posture when working, avoid excessive strain on the joints, and take regular rests; when doing housework, you should pay attention to the correct posture of your fingers and wrists, and do not bend or extend them excessively; do not lift heavy objects; do not use too much force on your fingers and wrists; do not work continuously for too long; it is best to use warm water when washing clothes in winter, and wear cotton gloves when sweeping snow after snowing to prevent your hands from getting cold; for people who work at a desk for a long time, they should adopt the correct working posture, try to keep both hands balanced, and the wrists can touch the objects instead of hanging in the air; rotate the wrist joint 360 degrees; or clench your fists and then relax, do it back and forth several times, or press your fingers or palms back a few times, which can effectively relieve hand soreness; when you feel tired in your body joints, you can take a hot bath to relax your tense muscles, or apply hot compresses to the sore areas.

If you have wrist tenosynovitis in the early stages or the condition is not serious, you can relieve pain symptoms and reduce inflammation by applying hot compresses to the wrist, applying antipyretic and analgesic ointments locally, etc., but the most important thing is to get enough rest for the wrist. Wearing a wrist protector is very useful, which helps reduce adverse wrist forces and helps reduce inflammation.
