The most common cause is a deep bruise or "charley horse" (what doctors call an ecchymosis). It usually heals within a week or two, often feeling a little better each day.
If it is a smaller lump, it is very possible that this could be an infected cyst or abscess, just below the skin.
If this is not the case, and the lump persists, unchanged, for days and/or weeks, then it would be important to have this situation evaluated by a physician.
Any lumps should be seen by your doctor. Hopefully, it is not serious, but get it checked.

If there is a painful lump above your wrist that hurts when you touch it, extend your fingers, when you roll your wrist or when you grip onto something you may have damaged a tendon or ligament. Your best bet is to talk to your health care provider for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate testing.
The two anterior aspects of the upper thigh are the quadriceps femoris muscle group and the sartorius muscle. The quadriceps femoris group is a large muscle that covers the front of the thigh and is responsible for extending the knee joint. The sartorius muscle is the longest muscle in the body and helps with flexing the hip and knee joints and rotating the thigh.
