I have a ganglion cyst on my hand. Do I need treatment?
No, if it does not bother you, leave it alone. Most ganglions spontaneously
disappear. Every technique for treatment of ganglion cyst is fraught with
problems and recurrences. The best advice is avoid surgery unless you have
severe pain.
Ganglion cysts in most cases do not cause any symptoms and are of
a cosmetic concern. Again, if it does not bother you, leave it alone.
Complications are very common after surgery and this may include damage to your
hand nerves and blood vessels. In some cases, the surgeon can mess up the
ligaments of your wrist, which results in hand stiffness.
