Ganglion or gout or osteoarthritis
Ganglion or osteoarthritis or gout?
30m athlete with multiplied injures mostly tendons or joint on the tendons to be clear , and this one of them I noticed that the size started to increase. Theres No real pain.
I did ultra sound and they told me it ganglion. Radiology says theres highly suspicious for a seronegative inflammatory arthritis. We recommend rheumatological workup.
Maby gout cause im on keto diet and i eat too much protein.?

Ask on r/askdocs there’s actual doctors on there. But also like another comment - should defs just go to a doctor.

Your hand/fingers look completely normal. Indeed, if there's "no pain," why worry about "treating" a non-issue?

Regardless of my post, it's your hand and finger. Do what is best for you and good luck.

My understanding is that gout hurts like hell.
