its a physical problem, something that has filled with joint fluid

by mistake and tho i drink up my kt i decided tohave mine removed last year

to stop the aches and pains - after weighing up the pros and cons of course

the scar has faded fast and i healed well

tho i use my wrists a lot it has never come back

the anaesthetist also had a scar from a ganlion, and so did the clinic nurse

at my follow up ....

never thought of putting kt on it either as these things dont usually reduse

afaik

Mickey,

From what I just read, the lump, called a ganglion cyst, is most of the

time not a big deal. Some MD's believe it is associated with arthritis

or the onset of arthritis. If this is the case, the KT can prove

helpful, and applying cut up SCOBY, might help, but even if it doesn't

it won't hurt anything.

It would be interesting to know if it is in a place where your friend

can put a flashlight on the opposite side of it, and see if the light

shines through it. (Like we used to do as kids)This will be a good

indication that it is just fluid. Here are a few sites about it:

My Sister has had a ganglion cyst on her wrist since childhood about 45 years

with no problems. When she was little the doctor used to recommend hitting it

with a book but it never went away.

Geeze Jackie,

Sorry to hear that, I guess the Doctor didn't like your sister too

much:) Wow, I hope she never got the mumps!

On a more serious note, what a horrible thing to say to do to a child!

So sorry, was just sharing my sick sense of humor, and I appreciate the

trivia,But, hopefully everyone knows that this is not a method or option

of treatment. I mean that from what I just read about it, I am assuming

that the lump is formed in one of two ways, the synovial tissue gets a

weak spot which balloons out and fills with synovial fluid, or an actual

tear in the tendon sheath leaks out the fluid causing the lump. The

ideal scenario is for the body to eventually reabsorb the fluid making

the lump go away, and if KT can help with the discomfort until this

happens or can help to make it happen quicker, great, but book thumping

is definitely a poor choice it can do much more damage than the actual

lump, and practically insure that the condition will return. But I would

suggest that you tell your friend that if even the KT doesn't help, then

go to a doctor to get relief.

Hello,

Ran Knishinsky, author of " The Clay Cure, " says that he cured himself of a

ganglion cyst by drinking clay water for a few months; it just disappeared.

Perhaps drinking KT will do the same thing?
