A member asked:
Can wraps prevent wrist ganglion cysts?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A splint or wrap : Will not prevent a ganglion but it could prevent motion and there are times that increased wrist motion leads to a ganglion getting larger in size. Wrist motion may push fluid into the ganglion.
