Ganglion cysts are fluid-filled swellings near joints or tendons, especially on the wrist. While typically benign, they can cause discomfort or restrict wrist movement over time.
Why Do Ganglion Cysts Form?
They often develop due to:
- Joint or tendon irritation
- Repeated wrist movement or trauma
- Fluid buildup from wear and tear
Though harmless, untreated cysts may grow or return.
