Bumps and lumps of the hand can be any number of things... all are classified as a hand tumor, but do they all require treatment, and which are a cause for concern? Host Debra Schindler explores the various types of hand tumors from the benign to malignant, with hand surgeon and Chief of the Curtis National Hand Center, Dr. James Higgins, and orthopedic oncologist, Dr. Mohammed Karim. Learn about the variety of hand tumors, treatment options, and the importance of early diagnosis. Don’t let uncertainty hold you back— peace of mind is everything.
If you have concerns about a hand tumor and would like to see a specialist call 877-34-ORTHO or 877-346-7846. If you’re from outside the Maryland area, ask for a video consult appointment.
