Individuals developing ganglion cyst observe smooth, round lumps growing on their wrist or near their finger joints. These lumps are filled with fluid which can be confirmed by focusing light on it, as the fluid can be observed due to transillumination. The cysts are usually painless but in some cases, people may experience some pain due to pressure exerted on the nerve fibers near the joint by the fluid-filled sac. The size of the cyst keeps changing depending on the level of activity of the person. When the person's activity increases, the size of the cyst increases and when the person is at rest, the size of the cyst eventually decreases.
Some people experience pain even when there is no evidence of lump formation. This happens because of the presence of occult cysts, which are very small in size and are not visible. If a person suffers from pain, be it due to a large cyst or an occult cyst, his normal activities are greatly affected. Medical procedures like aspiration are used to treat this condition non-surgically. If this treatment does not give relief, surgery is carried out. Some exercises also help in reducing the pain associated with these cysts, which can be practiced regularly.
