Ortho For Primary Care Collegues: Ganglyon Cyst ( Bump on the wrist)

This video in the Ortho for Primary Care series focuses on ganglion cysts, commonly known as “bumps on the wrist.” Viewers will learn what ganglion cysts are, why they develop, and how they can affect wrist movement and hand function. We also discuss how to distinguish them from other wrist masses during a clinical exam. Created for primary care colleagues, medical students, and healthcare professionals, this educational content highlights diagnostic approaches, conservative treatment options, and when referral to an orthopedic specialist may be necessary. The goal is to provide clear, practical guidance to support effective evaluation and management of ganglion cysts in the primary care setting.
