Ganglion cyst on a woman's ankle
Ganglion cyst on the ankle of a 61 year old female patient. Ganglion cysts are fluid-filled lumps that commonly appear near the tendons or joints of the wrists, hands, ankles, and feet. They can range in size from a pea to a golf ball and feel like a smooth lump under the skin. Although harmless, they can cause pain when they press on a nearby nerve. The cause of ganglion cysts is unknown, but they tend to occur most frequently in women between the ages of 20 and 40, as well as in those with joint injuries or osteoarthritis. Treatment is only recommended if the cyst causes pain or affects joint movement. The main methods of treatment are aspiration (fluid drainage using a needle) and surgery.
