Brief Answer:
cyst symptoms and causes

Detailed Answer:

Dear

Thanks for contacting with your health concern.

1. does cyst contain fluid- semi solid or gas filled substance? i.e any examination by general physician or surgeon [biopsy]??
2. any chronic inflammatory condition or history of injury/infection?
3. although it is painful, any degree of discomfort caused?
4. Treatment will depend on factors, like location-size-type of cyst, thus prior to any medical solution seek and expert opinion around your locality and if he/she is of the opinion that the cyst is benign [not harmful] then preventive/prohylactic aspect can be discussed further.

Do revert back for your concerns.

Examination and Initial Management

Detailed Answer:
Dear

Thanks for reverting back.

1. Since you have not consulted any doctor, mine suggestion would be to kindly get an opinion, so that attending doctor-patient are sure whether the present cyst is harmful or malignant.
PS. driving for long time also causes ganglion cysts, carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, for which orthopedic examination becomes necessary, also check with blood sugar and under active thyroid.

2. Add little turmeric powder on aloe vera leaf after cutting it, heat it and apply on cyst. or simply buy 'Dashang Lepa' from market and apply it after reading the instructions.
. Kanchnar Guggulu: 2 tablet [thrice daily] with abhya arishta or khadira arishta is helpful in decreasing the swelling.

3. Avoid repetitive work: since if performed often enough can lead to wrist pain and formation of ganglion cysts.
