Ganglion Cyst
Ganglion cysts are benign (noncancerous) fluid-filled lumps that commonly form along the tendons or joints of the wrists and hands, although they can also occur in the ankles and feet. They usually have a round or oval shape and contain a gelatinous or jelly-like fluid called synovial fluid, which is similar to the fluid found in joints.

Ganglion Cyst of the Wrist
Ganglion cysts are one of the most common masses or bumps that can be found on the wrist. They typically occur on the dorsal (back) side of the wrist but can also appear on the volar (palm) side. These cysts become more visible when the wrist is bent or flexed.
