I am waking up with a heavy left hand every day. The left palm feels heavy and mildly swollen.
Recently when I was walking in the park I got itching on my left wrist on the palm side and there was one or two pimples which had swelling and was itchy.
However even after the itching stopped, there is a small swelling on the wrist on the bottom of the palm.its a bit painful , causes numbness of my palm.i am able to use my wrist normally.
When I press my palm on a hard surface I see 2 squishy bumps one small and one long one.
I am wondering if it is a ganglion cyst or lymphedema.
I was diagnosed with mild splenomegaly (13.7 cm ) 3 months back whose rib pains are getting better. Hematologist and rheumatologist cleared me of any issues 1 month back.
I don't have any other problems and go to office normally. Height 163 cm , weight is 70 kg and age 33, male.

Based on your complaints and picture seems like you need to give some rest to your hands. This seems like work related tendonitis. Means inflammation of your muscles and tendons of your hand. Could be a ganglion cyst too. Needs examination by a Surgeon or Orthopaedician.

Rest to your hands. It happens when you keep your wrists unknowingly in a different position. A splint might help
