So after falling over at work, having x rays and mri's, it's been a very long 6 weeks. Finally results have come back apparently I I have a small ganglion. There is no visible lump, but I am in a lot of pain, and it's restricting me from moving my hand in certain ways. Apparently my treatment is physio, but I don't see how physio will help with a ganglion?? Anyone else had experience like this ? Most people are telling me ganglions aren't painful but I am in a lot of pain
