HOMOEOPATHIC REMEDIES FOR GANGLION CYST
Ganglion
cysts are noncancerous lumps that most commonly develop along the tendons or
joints of your wrists or hands. They also may occur in the ankles and feet.
Ganglion cysts are typically round or oval and are filled with a jelly-like
fluid.
Small ganglion cysts can be pea-sized, while larger
ones can be around an inch (2.5 cm) in diameter. Ganglion cysts can be painful
if they press on a nearby nerve. Their location can sometimes interfere with
joint movement.
Causes -- It's not clear what causes a
ganglion cyst to develop. It grows out of a joint or the lining of a tendon,
looking like a tiny water balloon on a stalk, and seems to occur when the
tissue that surrounds a joint or a tendon bulges out of place. Inside the cyst
is a thick lubricating fluid similar to that found in joints or around tendons.
Symptoms-
The lumps associated with ganglion cysts can be characterized by:
·
Location. Ganglion cysts most
commonly develop along the tendons or joints of your wrists or hands. The next
most common locations are the ankles and feet, although these cysts can occur
near other joints as well.
·
Shape and size. Ganglion cysts are round or
oval and usually measure less than an inch in diameter. Some are so small that
they can't be felt. The size of a cyst can fluctuate, often getting larger when
you use that joint for repetitive motions.
·
Pain. Ganglion cysts usually are
painless. However, if a cyst presses on a nerve — even if the cyst is too small
to form a noticeable lump — it can cause pain, tingling, numbness or muscle
weakness.
