Ganglion cysts: Under a physician’s guidance, patients may take nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for pain relief—for example, aspirin tablets—and may also receive adjunctive acupuncture therapy to help alleviate the aforementioned symptoms. If the condition is severe, prompt referral to the orthopedic surgery department of a reputable hospital is necessary, where arthroscopic surgical excision of the cyst is performed to prevent disease progression.
