I have a ganglion cyst on my left forearm that swells up and gets uncomfortable when I lift heavy things but doesn't hurt when I press it Will it go away with aspiration or do I need surgery
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A ganglion cyst on your forearm that swells and causes discomfort when lifting heavy things, but doesn't hurt when pressed, can be treated with aspiration or surgery. Aspiration involves draining the fluid from the cyst, which can provide temporary relief. Surgery is an option if aspiration fails or if the cyst is causing significant problems
