Loads Of Bumps?

Hi everyone.
Last week I noticed a little bump on the palm of my hand only about the size of the middle of the letter o. (Not a good explanation but couldn't think of anything else!) I only had one last week and it got smaller so I though nothing of it but this week I've noticed theres about 9 of them now? Anyone know what it could be or if I should worry about it?

Hi
If the lumps are hard, itchy and have a black dot in middle, they are probably boils oor infection of hair follicles. These could also be allergic reaction to something. Please consult your PCP as a confirmed diagnosis cannot be given on net. Take care!

Thank you for your reply. They are quite hard and theyve started itching quite a bit if that helps?

Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
It is difficult to comment without examining the bumps. If they are hard they could be ganglions or neurofibromas (nerve and connective tissue). If they are soft, they could be lipomas or collection of fat. It could also be an allergic reaction. Though they may not be harmful, get your PCP to look at them so that the diagnosis is confirmed.
Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
