Anyone here ever have a ganglion removed by surgery? Is a lump, often found on the back of the wrist that is filled with a gel-like substance. Seems the fluid is basically joint fluid that is slowly leaking into the cyst. It's about an inch in diameter and fairly visible when I bend my wrist. It only hurts when I do barbell presses of any sort. So far I have avoided the issue by doing dumbell excersises.
I was thinking about getting it surgically removed, but would like to know what the recovery period is, how long till I can lift properly again?
