Ganglion Cysts (1 Viewer)

My wife had one when we were dating I used to hit with a book.

It went away.

Now I hit her more out of habit than anything.

 
I have on one my wrist, when I was in the Navy a really old Dr. smashed it with a hammer. It came back, and varies in size but I haven't messed with it since.

 
wow. I never knew that this is what I used to have. I had one for years, never bother to see a doctor about it even though it was pretty big.

one day I was wresting with a buddy and he squeezed my wrist and it popped back inside of my body. felt alot better. It came back a few times and I would just pop it back myself. after about 3 times it never came back.

I would highly recommend smashing it.

 
I used to have one. I just crushed it with my other hand a couple of times. Hasn't come back in several yaers.

I think I have one of these on my back of my hand. And another on my knee. The idea of having anyone deliberately smash my hand with a book or hammer makes me :X and :)

Are there other ways to get rid of these?

Doctor can drain it with a needle but they usually refill.I have had one in the palm of my hand for like 10 yrs now. It never really hurts me or affects me so doctor said I should just leave it be

My girl is a dr and this is what she did for hers (and mine) over the years. Bang on!
 
just smashed one of these with a book about 3 weeks ago. hurt about 10x more than expected. i was jumping around the room holding my wrist refusing to show it to my wife because she hit it so hard.

seemed to work though. took a couple days but it drained down just after that.

It doesn't feel any better if you accidentally slam your cyst/wrist into a wall while playing racquetball. On the plus side, the cyst disappeared the next day.
 
I had one on the back of my hand a few years back. I drained a dozen or so bottles of liquid courage and then slammed into a wall. Disappeared on the spot and never returned. No pain either.

 
I'm bored on a 2.5 hour trip home and here is a random lighter in the car. I decide to whack the cyst.

Holy Jesus with a damn on top. That hurt WAY more than I thought it would. Were I not marginally drunk from St. Pats, it may have been unbearable.

You should have numbed it first like with the flame from the lighter.
 
I had one 5 years ago...a buddy smashed it with an old dictionary (helps if you look away, don't know it's coming). It went away the next day.

Man up and smash

 
Had one on my wrist a few years ago and it just went away after several months, never returned.

Just had something similar pop out of my elbow area yesterday while out to lunch. Iced it down and is better today but still squishy and tender. Can you get the ganglions near the elbow or do I have some other condition?

Half expected not to wake up this morning, hope to see you guys tomarrow.
