A member asked:
I have a lump on the side of my knee that swells and subsides regularly. it appears to be a form of ganglion. what can be done? no pain.

Cyst: Possible ganglion, although most common in wrist. I would think a synovial cyst more likely. Your best course of action would be to see an orthopedist.
