one of my friends had air pockets in the back of her wrist, making them look like huge tumors. she was in a car accident and used her hands to keep from rebounding, so her wrists took in the force of the impact. that's why she had them. i have no idea about yours though. you should probably get them checked

My ex-friend had something similar to that. It was just hard fat under his skin. He went to the doc and it removed. So, go to the Doctore :nod:

here is how to get rid of a cyst:

options are hit w/ a book(5% chance of going away, if you don't break your wrist) have the doctor drain it (60% chance of goin' away) or sergery and remove it (95% chance of goin' away)

my dad had something like that and he had to have surgery to get it chopped off.

His hand or just the cyst?? :lol:

Dude, my friend had this. There is a certain name for it...I'll ask her tonight. Anyway, she went to the doctor and they just took it out. My other friend gets them, but she says she just falls backward really hard and catches herself with her wrist and then they break and go away. I'm not too sure that's a good idea though...

Could it be like a calcium deposit or something?

My mom has that .. the doctor told her it's just a fatty deposit and nothing to worry about. I'm sure they could drain it or something. I would definitely get the doctor's opinion before doing anything though :nod:

true dat :lol:

but seriously, if we're talking about the same thing, i have that! Not right now, it comes and goes. When I do have it, when I bend my wrist forward, there's a big bump in the joint right there. It's really painful to bend it, but its kind of knawing pain, like I want to bite it or something to make it go away.

My wrists get really weak, well they always are, even right now. I can't really hold my own weight at all, my wrists just collapse. It sucks :(

They started like 5 years ago, but I never thought about having them checked out...:freak:
