Prob ganglion cyst: Often ganglion cyst. Ultrasound exam usually can characterize these lesions.Treatment can often be non-surgical. In many cases, these cysts can simply be observed, especially if they are painless, as they frequently disappear spontaneously. If the cyst becomes painful, limits activity, or is otherwise unacceptable, several treatment options are available.Sometimes aspirate. Exam by doctor confirms.
