When a person first finds that small curious lump on the palm of the hand, it is important to know that at least 16 different problems can cause a bump in that area. For this reason it is wise to first receive a formal diagnosis from your doctor so you know what you are dealing with, although most of the 16 potential hand problems can easily be eliminated by common sense.  Some of the others, such as leprosy or malignancy of the hand, are actually a rare consideration.  Most people who actually have Dupuytren contracture (which is the most common cause for a nodule or lump on the palm of the hand) can pretty well make that determination on their own after just a small amount of reading and reflection.
