About 6 years ago I developed a painful lump on my left wrist, just below the thumb. I went to the doctor and was told it is a ganglion cyst. Eventually it became less painful, and most of the time I forget I even have it. Last night though it flared up again, and today has been very painful. I can hardly use my left hand at all, I have no strength in it. I'm not sure why it's suddenly flared up again now. I do remember hitting it on something, but I think that was at the weekend. I just hope it dies down again soon. The only treatment is to have it drained or surgically removed, and neither of those sound particularly appealing!
