A member asked:
My dr told me i have a ganglion cyst in foot that doesn't show up on x-rays. will it go away on its own?

Not likely: Although the cyst may be there, it does not mandate further care either. If there is growth or symptoms like pain or pressure, see a podiatrist or orthopedic surgeon to discuss further options on care.
