If a ganglion cyst is left untreated will it become very bad and serious?

I have a ganglion cyst in my wrist. Ganglion cysts are not harmful at all- the liquid inside of them is not toxic and the cyst is usually flexible enough to fit around bones and veins around them (in fact, my vein actually created a dent in the cyst because the cyst developed under the vein; however, the cyst isn't strong enough to break or even move the vein). Ganglion cysts rarely hurt and never restrict movement. Left untreated, the only thing a cyst might do is grow and shrink, which is perfectly normal. A ganglion cyst won't become serious. The only reason one might want to get rid of cyst (whether by a doctor draining or performing surgery on it) is for purely cosmetic reasons.


Does hitting a ganglion cyst with a book hurt?

It won't hurt to actually pop the cyst (which sometimes happens on its own, by the way), but if you hit the cyst with a book you might bruise the area around where you hit it (just like if you had hit the area with a book anyway), or if you hit it hard enough you might break a bone (just like if you had hit it with no cyst). Hitting a cyst with a book is usually not done; there are other ways to get rid of cyst including a doctor draining it with a needle and surgery. However, unless you want the cyst removed for cosmetic reasons there is no reason to remove a cyst- it usually doesn't hurt and does not restrict movement (I should know, I have a ganglion cyst on my wrist).


What is ganglion cyst removal?

If a ganglion does not cause symptoms it is best just to leave it alone. However, many people prefer to be rid of them. The best possible method of removing it is through homeopathy. Ask a homeopathist to give you a mixture of Ruta-Graveolens . Homeopathy doesn't work for everyone, you have to be someone who is willing to try it. The pain will generally subside after two days and the cyst will usually disappear after 3 days. Homeopathy works at the source of the problem and the cyst is said to never return. Many people have heard of the traditional cure. That is, to smash them with a heavy book (tradition holds it to be the family bible). This bursts the cyst under the skin. The fluid is then absorbed into the bloodstream. In some people this works well, but there is a high chance of it recurring as the walls of the cyst can reform. However, it is an instant cure for some. Sometimes it is possible to suck out the fluid with a needle and syringe. If the jelly-like fluid is very thick this may not work. Also, if it does work, there is a chance that the cyst will recur as the wall of the cyst is not removed, and the fluid may form again to refill the ganglion. However, in some people it cures the problem. As it is quite easy for a doctor to do, it is often attempted first. Surgical removal of the ganglion is the last resort that one should consider. This is a relatively minor operation. Rarely, after a ganglion is removed, one recurs again at the same site. However, after having it surgically removed a recurrence is much less likely to occur.
