It is good that you are having a benign tumor and which can be cured. Cancer of the bone is a very severe and serious condition. It may be a giant cell tumor, enchondroma , simple bone cyst or osteochondroma. In many cases, benign tumors just need to be watched. Some can be treated effectively with medication. Some benign tumors will disappear over time.
The bone growth causes compression of the nerves and the hand is supplied from the brachial plexus by radial, medial and ulnar nerve.
You need to consult a neurologist to check the involvement of nerves and for the relief of pain from nerve irritation, contraction.
Follow up with your orthopedician.
Take care!
