Swelling and hardness in the flexor carpi ulnaris muscle could be due to a strain or overuse injury, which causes inflammation and muscle tension. Conditions such as tendinitis or repetitive stress from activities like gripping or wrist flexion may also contribute to swelling. Additionally, underlying issues like tendon tears or inflammation could lead to localized swelling. If symptoms persist, it's advisable to seek medical evaluation for proper diagnosis and treatment.
