Ganglion Cysts may change the structure or function of the foot and ankle over time. A careful evaluation can clarify the condition and the treatment options that fit your needs.

Treatment Options

Small or painless ganglion cysts may simply be observed. Symptomatic cysts may be treated with shoe modification, aspiration in selected cases, or other pressure-relieving measures.

Surgical Excision

Recurrent, painful, or function-limiting ganglion cysts may be removed surgically when conservative treatment is unsuccessful.

When to Seek Care

Evaluation is recommended for a new or enlarging lump, pain with shoes or activity, numbness, or uncertainty about the diagnosis.

Schedule an appointment with Dr. Neville to discuss treatment for a ganglion cyst.
