What Is The Cause Of Hard And Painful Cyst On Inside Of Wrist?
I have a hard cyst on the inside of my wrist that came up in Feburary, I hurt really bad for about a month, then the pain went away.The last couple of days pain has come back and it is growing. It is hard as a rock though, I'm not sure what it could be, what do you think?
It could be Gagilion. its the jelly fluid from the joint space. Its generally in joint area like wrist and most commonly in female who frequently use hand like washing . and if its very hard then need to have biopsy for conformation. Pain might be due to compression on the nerve around there. ? Also Ultrasound can be done for conformation too
