    This is really one of the few good videos on the topic, so thank you. I keep suffering from ganglions cyst on and off, probably due to certain yoga postures. They're incredibly painful; icing and painkillers seems to take care of it in 2-3 days. I'm going to work on refraining from doing those postures from now on and also massage my wrists and be more mindful of the weak joints. Thank you again!

      Believe it or not Frankincence essential oil helps tremendously. 2 drops on the skin covering the cyst. I use a small amount of coconut or other oil first (just bc I'm used to diluting my essential oils), then drops of the frankincense oil on top. Gently massage it in. Takes away the pain AND reduces size quickly.

    I have had 2 ganglion cysts on the back of both my wrists for over 4 years now, due to constant typing and bad wrist placement near the keyboard, I had the one on my right aspirated once and it went away, though the bump remained, there's no longer any pain. But the one of the left, though used less compared to the right hand, keeps coming back, even though I had them aspirated twice. But since i started using epsom salt soaks, and also changed the way I kept my wrist while typing, the pain has gone down substantially. Also getting the muscles that lead up to the wrist (in case of wrist ganglion) stronger through controlled exercise is the only natural non gross remedy. Good luck to everyone trying to fix this weird problem. Thank you jamie, this video seems to be more of a solution than most of them out there.

Currently one of them is on-n-off painful. I will have her listen to your story as she and I always look for DIY remedies and non-invasive solutions to health challenges. Thanks for posting your story.

    Thanks for your video. My doctor in the UK diagnosed pain in my thumb joint as an internal ganglion. The British national health system refused to help in any way (cost!). I also used to have my arms ‘go to sleep’ when riding my motorcycle. I was checked for carpal tunnel syndrome but the tests were negative. I believe that the 2 issues are connected. I have retired to live in Bangkok, Thailand with my Thai family. I no longer ride a motorcycle, so my arms going to sleep aren’t an issue anymore. The ganglion is another matter, usually my thumb just aches but I have to be careful not to do anything with my thumb that would move the ganglion into the joint, otherwise the pain is intense. Due to covid massage parlours, here are closed so until they re-open I will be careful.

    For those who have a bump on the back of the wrist, you may try the table edge method. First close the hand into a tight fist, bend the wrist to bulge the bump out, and quickly hit the bump against the table's edge several times until the bump is flatten or is no longer there. It is like doing kung-fu against the table's edge, but do not do it too hard. Good luck and I hope it will work for you.

    I had one on my wrist - locked myself out of my house one day, had to climb in the window - when I pushed myself up through the window...POP - my cyst was gone. A little pain, but it left. I was working in a "typing pool" at the time - yes, it was the 80's , so I figured it was from the typing. I have a very small one there today, but doesn't bother me.

    Great video! This has kind of confirmed what I suspected. A year ago I switched from using a standard computer mouse to a rollerball mouse, with my forearm and wrist resting on a hard table top and my hand cranked up and on to the mouse. Over time I noticed some irritation to my wrist and tightness over the top of my hand, I recently noticed a lump which at times is barely noticable and quite prominant at times of general activity. It's affecting the nerve in my wrist now to a point it's really painful using that hand and a light discomfort pain while at rest.

  • @georganderson4450
    @georganderson4450 4 ปีที่แล้ว +14

    Quick Recap:
    1) Find the activity which was responsible for the problem and eliminate it.
    2) Work on your trigger points (with Stick, massage, acupuncture)
    3) Stregthen the antagonists
    4) Find a therapist who is workting with you on your body and posture (rolfing)
    I consider the latter good advice and would like to add that problems like this cannot be solved "locally". Just working on your forearm won't help. Who of you guys also has problems with golfers elbow, carpal tunnel syndrome or the shoulder? Hot canditates for these symptoms are subluxations of the cervical spine (especially, if problems are on both sides) or the shoulder girdle. Maybe a specialist with an holistic approach (a rolfer or chiro practitioner) could help.

They form usually when I apply excess pressure to my wrist doing things like Bench Pressing/Push-ups, sleep with my hand in the wrong angle or when punching a boxing bag. It sucks but by the time I am able to get an orthopedic to check it out... the cyst calms and disappears. Smh 🤦🏻‍♂️

    Basically my wrists have been hurting for 3 years now and there was nothing like any bumps or anything and I've learnt to live with it. I thought it was a growth problem and I had blood tests ect and the doctor agreed and told me to wait for a few more months. And so I couldn't wait any longer. The pain is in both of my wrists in the exact same place and the pain has become unbareable so I went to a hospital and I had both of my wrists X-Rayed and it wasn't a bone problem and so after that i have just had an MRI and I went to the hospital Yesturday for my results and I found out that that I have Ganglion Cysts in both of my wrists but there arnt any lumps on the top of underneath and on the MRI scan the cysts show up right in the centre of my hands so I can't pop it or anything and I have to go for a injection in 2 months where I'll have to be asleep because they have to dig down then surgery!!! Im so scared!!! Hehe anyways I thought I should share with you 😂😂 subscribe 😂✌️

      hope you have found some resolve and pain relief thru surgery. If not, there are a few videos on here that discuss hot compress/anti-inflammatory treatments, such as pills, diet, essential oils, Epsom salts, etc. And, some ppl have found long-term resolve with this. Just FYI in case of a return, which has been said chances are high with aspiration or surgery. I have just detected this problem, popped up 3 days ago, and looking for info. Going to see the doc tomorrow for definite diagnosis.

Mine came just a month ago after I tripped over in the bush and landed on my hand, after that my wrist got really painful and I thought I'd sprained it or something but no, it's a ganglion cyst. I clean houses for a living as well so that makes it hard to not use my right hand. Although my clients have dropped by more then half of course so maybe I won't have any soon.

    I'm trying to figure how I got mine. I Bodybuild and PowerLift, have done that for years without any ganglion cyst action. Took two months off because of moving and getting settled in and woke up one day with this disgusting lump. Turns out its a volar ganglion cyst. I use my wrist a lot at work as I operate machinery that requires me to use a motorcycle type of throttle, so it might be that but I've been doing this for years also. I liked your idea about posture, it's insightful. I use good form at the gym and tend to sit up straight (no slouching etc) but I have had lower back pain for years, which brings me back to your posture and fascial tissue point. It seems to make sense, so after watching this I'm going to look into massage therapists and chiropractors because I really don't want to go under the knife lol thank you

    I got mine 7 years ago, there were many factors to trigger it, alot of bench press, punching the bag without gloves(i knew being retarded is not beneficial but the curiosity and ignorance pushed me to find out ), alot of pushups and hand writing at that time. At first it was huge got it over night, no pain at all no mobility problems for a month. During a chest workout I felt a crack and it dissapeared completely. Only after 8 months I got it back, pretty small but hurtful as f*ck, that i could barely swipe my a55. Got some physiotherapy not helped to much it kind of healed on its own, I still have it but is small. 2018-2019 it came back a few times, after that until 2022 it never cause me any big issues just small discomfort wich usually disappeared after a day. The pattern i see, mine comes back after a period of pause from gym or any other activities that can trigger it , oddly. Also diet influence it alot, if i go with an inflammatory diet for a medium or long term, it gets back also other injuries as well. The way i deal with it, wrist bandages on gym or other activities that puts pressure on wrists, fix diet, if sore give it the time it needs to recover - that s something i was stubborn about in the past and man, the pain can be a hell, using pushup bars, focus on keeping wrist in a neutral position, use inflamatory gel, and get a new skill and learn to beat ur meat with the other hand, use supplements like multivitamins, msm, glucosamine chondroitin, collagen, this helped me alot, when i used them regullary, i barely got issues as long as i did not put preasure on wrist. Also a very important factor, training ur forearms in a way that u don t put preasure on wrist helps alot to strenght ur wrist. If u got any trigger factors like mine, let me kn if u'd like , i'm very curios.

    Went to my GP last week n he told me that, it will be done under general anaesthetic. O mg, i got chickened out big time. Today i had my accupuncture treatment n hopefully it works.
    some of the stuff i learned from your video, my Doc also conformed the same thing. So you are on the right track.You good man, thank you so much n God bless.

    Mine was through push-ups and forearm exercises holding a barbell over a bench in both flexion and extension. Either from overuse or my wrists/forearms not being strong enough. It’s been with me for probably 6 years now. Flares up so easy and takes so long to heal. Have to stop exercising completely because it screws with everything. It’s started to reduce in size now, I took a hiatus from working out for 2 years now and it’s just started to flare up again. Haven’t tried massaging the muscles in my wrist though, afraid of surgery because of the recovery time and the possibility of growing back. Need to see a professional though, have tried 2 physio’s in the past and they didn’t diagnose it properly before the cyst had visibly formed

    This video was helpful, I've never had this
    ailment, but I have one brachioradialus
    (forearm) that gives me fits during short
    bursts of exercise. No problems after I
    give it a stretch and a rest, but it prevents
    me from longer workouts with that arm.
    Nunchucks for example, my right arm can
    spin all day, but the left arm can only go a
    minute or so, then needs rest, I'm thinking that
    I need to try to fix this issue.
    If I pick up a hammer and hammer a lot, eventually
    I can duplicate the pain in the right arm , but of
    course the left arm will have that pain after a much
    shorter period of time. Brachioradialus is the larger
    group of muscles on the top inner area of the forearm.
    ===
    Update: 20 minutes later; I tried to figure out what
    muscles might be opposing like Jamie mentioned,
    what I may have discovered is that the standard
    forward spin on a nunchuck would produce the
    pain in a short time, but the underhand spin
    seemed to be pretty much problem free, so I did
    a hundred of those underhands to try and balance
    the strength of those opposing muscles. I also
    tried some light weight curls.
    I have been stretching that Brachioradialus for a week
    or so, cause someone else said that would help,
    I found that it didn't seem to help me, but this method
    I learned from this video to find the opposing movement
    and strengthening that area might help, I think this might
    be the case for me.
    This forearm problem that I'm talking about started about
    6 months ago, during many kinds of activities, even wringing
    out a washrag , or using a towel to dry off, simple lightweight
    activities, but just in that one arm, and odd issue I think, but there
    has never been any pain at all , so long as I'm not using the arm,
    lol.

    Hi Jamie, I've been told my my GP that I have a ganglion cyst; it occurred after just resting my palm on my chin; its just underneath the third finger on the palm. Doing manual work, its not something I can avoid putting pressure on. Indeed it affects everyday activities too. Could you advise or direct me to pertinent information? Hope you can help.

The next day I noticed the ganglion cyst on that same arm but on my wrist. Keeps coming back and it’s usually accompanied with pain. It’s pressing the nerve there.

    Can you get a Ganglion Cyst from a blow rather than activity?
    I know you're not a doctor, but I just bumped the inside of my wrist while vacuuming and noticed a few minutes later that a blue swollen area developed in that spot. It's not "painful" as much as uncomfortable. It feels swollen.
    I'm not overly concerned as I recall this has happened before and usually cleared up on its own. But this time the blue area is pronounced and more uncomfortable than usual so I'm wondering if it could be a GC or something else.
    So, even though I bumped it rather than it developing from a repetitive action, could it still be a Ganglion Cyst?

    Rolfers are a type of massage therapist. They put a TM on "their" style of massage (essentially the same massage techniques they teach in every massage school, but done in a specific order). Every massage therapist is trained in how to deal with fascia and must pass an extremely detailed state exam on anatomy and physiology to get their license.
    As the massage industry got more competitive, everyone decided to start rebranding basic massage techniques and even charging a fortune for massage therapists to "learn" these "new" methods.
    However, any massage therapist worth his weight in salt will quickly see through the fallacies of these different massage schools and realize that they actually aren't learning anything that they haven't already learned in their certification course.
    Off the top of my head, here is a list of a few different massage methods that claim to be extremely sophisticated and advanced beyond regular massage school, yet fail to teach any technique that wasn't already taught in basic massage schools:
    -neurosomatic therapy: teaches their students that relaxation and Swedish massage is "massage" and that all other technical aspects (which are already taught in any massage school) are "specialized neurosomatic techniques and knowledge."
    -rolfing: takes the fascial system, anatomy trains, and massage techniques for dealing with these physical anatomical structures and organizes them into series of progressions.
    -rossiter: developed by a rolfer to basically do rolfing with the use of the massage therapist's feet and elbows. Does not necessarily follow any series or progressions to alter the tensions in the anatomy trains. Has instructors who advocate that the same activities that stretch the anatomy train cannot tear muscles or tendons (that's a lie, and I slightly tore a muscle while an instructor was demonstrating a technique on me while I attended this training).
    Neuromuscular therapy: there are actually schools that teach their students that by the time they graduate this "sophisticated elite" massage school, not only will they be massage therapists, they will be neuromuscular therapists. Like some of the others mentioned above, this school charges unsuspecting massage students a huge gouge under the guise that they are actually being taught something that isn't taught in every basic massage certification course. (In fact, neuromuscular techniques must be taught in any massage school due to manual therapies appearing on the certification exam.)
    Essentially, the neuromuscular schools believe that their selling point is the fact that they include just a fraction of one of the modules of any basic massage school in their training and convince their students that they are now specially trained with a unique skill set that no other massage therapist has... Despite the fact that every massage therapist is required to study and practice every manual therapy technique including those that neuromuscular tries to claim is their own trademarked knowledge, even though those techniques are actually regular massage techniques rebranded.
    Lockte: basically, rossiter but failing to follow some very powerful rules of rossiter such as "use a platform to allow you to distribute your wait in a steady and controlled way onto your client." Like rossiter, this method also tries to claim that actively moving under a pin-and-stretch technique is a proprietary technique that hasn't already been taught to every massage therapist holding a certificate.
    Medical massage: ceu's and even whole massage schools that claim that their massages are medical and therefore unlike all other massage. Embarrassingly, I've met many "medical massage therapists" who insist that they are taught clinical medical things as part of their massage classes and that makes them unique. Yet, none of these characters were even aware of the existence of anatomy trains.
    Truly, I'm not sure how anyone falls for the "medical massage therapist" scheme considering that anyone holding a massage license has to recertify every two years to their state's medical board.
    The list goes on and on. Be careful what you pay for. I've been the victim and I've met other victims of incompetently done massage techniques being performed by self-proclaimed elite massage therapists that insist that you refer to them by their highly sophisticated title, instead of calling them what they are: massage therapists.

      I'm a LMT with a cyst lmao... We didn't learn any specific techniques... Most fake that they know how to get rid of it but I look down an it's still there. I massage my arm and wrist. I try to get the trigger points and go to the compensation areas an nada... Friction massage helps with nerve stimulation. And I aggressively flick my wrist to help when it's at its worse. I use aspercream and essential oils sometimes it gets small but can't tell if it's cause i didn't massage for a few days or cause of the aspercream. The essential oil I use a few people in a chat room said it worked wonders for theirs. It was Frankincense oil. I had it drained 2 times and bibled it 2 times, popped it 2 times with my finger an now it multiplied into 3 smaller ones where one can fill into another. The big issues comes an goes so not too big yet. And surprisingly the bass in my car helps when I rest my wrist strait on the door handle. Good luck to y'all.

I have done a few rackets sports for my island over the years and also do a lot of sailing and pulling on heavy ropes! sea kayaking and a few other sports which means I also rub them and the skin comes off. I was hoping for another kind of advice but just kept listening to you which I am sorry to say for me was pointless. I also run and do weights every day as I need strong arms etc. There is only one way I am going to get rid of them and I am resigned to the fact now, is that I will have to have them removed by the Doctor. The finger joints are the only joints I get them on :( I'm sure if they are not causing a painful problem one could live with them.
