Cyst Hi, my friend has a cyst on his wrist. He said it hurts him a lot when he does push ups in gym and all that. So, instead of getting it looked at, he pops it himself. It's on his right hand and he gives his social studies book to a friend while he grabs hold of something with his left hand and the person just slams the book on his wrist! Is that healthy?

he really should go to the doctor. he could be doing damage to himself and by busting it who knows what is going on in there. it's very unhealthy to be slamming text books on the cyst. that must be pretty painful.. ]
NO, not healthy and potentially dangerous. Many different things can cause a cyst, and without knowing what is INSIDE the cyst, he is putting himself at risk, potentially spreading germs or bacteria into his body through various routes. He needs to see a doctor ASAP, not an emergency, but within a day or two. Even an urgent care would be preferable to ignoring this! He can cause some permanent damage, things that he is not even considering.
It may be harmless, but it sounds like trouble.
If you found this helpful, please rate me. Let me know how this turns out!
Thanks
