A member asked:

I'm experiencing with ganglion cyst in my both hand. they are distracting me too much as i'm no more able to do work out and lifting heaving weights.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Drain them: Go to your doctor and have them examined. It is almost painless to have them drained and many times they do not come back.
