shouldn't it be squishy if it's liquid? it's pretty much as hard as bone.

Few years ago, i had the same thing (but on the outer side of my wrist) that turned out to be a ganglion.
It might sound confusing but it's feeling solid even while being liquid.

It's not harmfull, but easy to remove (takes a few minutes).

that link up there says that they're translucent, but mine is solid.

...do i wanna know how to get rid of it?

You are in the final stages of an aggressive form of cancer. Sorry.

They used to thump them flat with the family Bible....Try that.And if it fails the doc just aspirated the contents with a needle.Unless it IS cancer of the wrist-it's incurable,you"ll need an amputation (above the elbow cause the growths have long roots)

i don't keep bibles in my house, so i'll just have to self-amputate at the shoulder.
