a friend of mine has a ganglion on her wrist, that is a cyst of fluid that appears for no reason, is large like a marble, painful and unsightly.

i was wondering what the TCM way of treating this condition might be? i was amazed just now to search the whole forum and find no mention of this problem which is fairly common, and quite a problem if you are a martial artist who is engaging in locks, strikes etc all of which may hit the ganglion itself.

any ideas?
