Ganglion Cysts and Tumors

The most common mass or lump in the hand, Ganglion cysts are fluid-filled and can quickly appear, disappear, and change size. Many do not require treatment. However, if the cyst is painful, interferes with function, or has an unacceptable appearance, there are treatment options available at DHR Health Hand and Wrist Institute. Tumors can also be found in the hand. The great majority of these tumors are benign. Visit our specialists at the DHR Health Hand and Wrist Institute for a complete diagnosis and plan.

Overuse injuries are stress-induced and include tendon inflammation and dislocation, nerve injury, and overuse stress fractures. DHR Health Hand and Wrist Institute treats traumatic and overuse injuries in athletes of all ages.
