I have had a ganglion cyst for quite some time. just noticed it wasn't there anymore. what should i expect from this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Common event: It is common for ganglions to wax and wane in size and symptoms dependent upon level of use. Suspect it will most likely return. Ganglion is a synovial cyst arising from a joint, use and motion of that joint will affect the ganglion .
