Ganglion cyst: You don't give much information here. It is not unusual to develop cysts on the tendons at the wrist. These sometimes are a little tender but are not serious unless they are in the carpal tunnel. In the old days, my orthopod says, they used to smack them with the family bible to pop them. I had mine aspirated and injected with steroid. It never came back.
