Relief from ganglion pain with surgical removal
Relief from pain and discomfort caused by the ganglion
Ganglion removal is a medical procedure that involves the surgical removal of a fluid-filled sac called a ganglion. Ganglions usually form on the joints or tendons of the wrist, hand, or foot, and can cause pain, discomfort, and limited mobility. The procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia and involves making a small incision over the ganglion. The surgeon then removes the ganglion and any associated tissue. After the procedure, the patient may experience some discomfort and swelling, which can be managed with pain medication and ice packs. The recovery time varies depending on the location and size of the ganglion, but most patients can resume normal activities within a few weeks. Ganglion removal is a safe and effective procedure that can provide long-lasting relief from the symptoms of ganglion cysts.
