A 50 years old lady with wrist ganglion cyst
Ganglion cysts are round lumps, filled with a jellylike fluid that most often appear along the tendons or joints of wrists or hands. They also can grow in ankles and feet.
The exact reason for its appearance is not known, but it grows out more likely of a damaged joint and tendon.
Ganglion cysts usually are small and painless. But if a cyst presses on a nerve it can cause pain and tingling.
Often, the cysts grow and shrink. Some go away on their own. If there are pain or other symptoms drain the cyst with a needle might be an option. Sometimes cyst surgery is necessary.
