Re: Zumba, chest, swimming, x-ray results

I hope it goes away by itself soon!!! I'm so glad it isn't a tendon or bone thing. I'd personally want it done if it got me back up to speed sooner. That sounds minimally invasive to me. 

Mine I think is more like this one:http://www.medicinenet.com/ganglion/article.htmIf it doesn't go away I'm gonna have it sucked out through a syringe as you mentioned earlier   makes the most sense to me!

It is feeling a tad better - maybe it will go away on it's own at some point?Thanks for article, Vennitta! Can't wait to hear even more about Xtrains!

Ganglion Cyst Overview

A ganglion cyst is a tumor or swelling on top of a joint or the covering of a tendon(tissue that connects muscle to bone). It looks like a sac of liquid (cyst). Inside the cyst is a thick, sticky, clear, colorless, jellylike material. Depending on the size,cysts may feel firm or spongy.

One large cyst or many smaller ones may develop. Multiple small cysts can give the appearance of more than one cyst, but a common stalk within the deeper tissue usually connects them. This type of cyst is not harmful and accounts for about half of all soft tissue tumors of the hand.

Ganglion cysts, also known as Bible cysts, are more common in women, and 70% occur in people between 20-40 years of age. Rarely, ganglion cysts can occur in children younger than 10 years of age.

Ganglion cysts most commonly occur on the back of the hand (60%-70%), at the wrist joint, and can also develop on the palm side of the wrist. When found on the back of the wrist, they become more prominent when the wrist is flexed forward. Other sites, although less common, include these:

The base of the fingers on the palm, where they appear as small pea-sized bumps

The fingertip, just below the cuticle, where they are called mucous cysts

The outside of the knee and ankle

The top of the footVennitta

The needle may not work on everyone. The doctor said the fluid was too thick and

so it needed to be removed surgically. The big reason mine hurt was because it

was pressing on nerves due to it's size. The lump itself didn't hurt (except for

the time it " ruptured spontaneously. " )

I hope yours is the kind to be removed easily!
