Ganglion Cyst

Don‘t just go for ANY TREATMENT... Go for the BEST TREATMENT

A Ganglion Cyst is a non-cancerous, fluid-filled lump that commonly occurs around the wrist, hand, ankle, or foot joints. It develops from the joint capsule or tendon sheath and contains a jelly-like fluid. These cysts may vary in size — sometimes becoming large and sometimes reducing on their own. While usually painless, they can cause pain, stiffness, weakness, or discomfort if they press on nearby nerves. Homoeopathy helps reduce cyst size, relieve discomfort, and prevent recurrence naturally.

Causes

Ganglion cysts form when joint tissue bulges out and fills with lubricating fluid. Common causes include:

  • Repeated strain or injury to the joint
  • Overuse of wrist/finger joints
  • Weakening of joint capsules
  • Inflammation of tendons (Tenosynovitis)
  • Arthritis or old joint injuries
