Ganglion Cyst is a tumor which is benign, swelling or lump that technically can occur in anyplace on the body but are usually most prevailing on the hands, and is also very common on the feet. The word comes from 'ganglion' translated to 'knot' recounting the lump of cells which is knotted and develops beneath the surface of the skin of the foot.
If you have any symptoms, medical evaluation of a ganglion cyst is a positive option. One of our Podiatric doctor's, Dr. Brent Harwood or Dr. Bradford Egly can make certain that it is indeed a ganglion cyst, and help you choose the best plan of action.
A ganglion cyst will not need any emergency treatment unless there is significant trauma. A check by one of our doctors who specializes in treating bones and joints known as an podiatrist ought to be sufficient.
