Overuse: As inflammation and fluid build up from overuse ganglion cysts can grow. If it a problem get it checked, drained, or removed.

Not necessarily: Ganglion can grow bigger with use of wrist. Some may even spontaneously resolve. If it becomes painful, or affects normal usage of joint, it can be surgically excised.
