A ganglion cyst is a lump that commonly forms on or near joints and tendons, typically appearing as a small, round sac filled with a gelatinous fluid. These cysts often develop in the wrist or hand but can also occur in other parts of the body. While the exact cause is unknown, they are believed to result from the leakage of synovial fluid, the lubricating fluid found in joints. Ganglion cysts are usually painless and harmless. #ganglioncystpopping #ganglioncyst #doctor #diy #homeremedy | Mary J
