At the beginning pf the year I discovered that I had a Ganglion cyst on the outside of my right ankle. I went to the doctor to get it looked at and they basically said there was nothing that I could do and that it would probably dissolve over the year. They would not drain it for me or do surgery to remove it. I asked if there was any natural way of getting rid of it and I had 2 doctors say no. Fast forward 6 months later, its still there and gets really swollen at the end of the day due me standing on my feet for 8 1/2 hours everyday. The outside of my left ankle has now started to develop a Cyst as well. I came across this chat thread and was so excited to read peoples success stories in getting rid of their cysts. For the past 2 days I have been Massaging in Frankincense Oil onto the Cysts in the morning and then when I get home in the evening I soak both of my feet up to my ankles in a Eucalyptus/Peppermint Epsom Salt bath for 20 minutes. This is followed by another round of me massaging Frankincense Oil onto the Cysts. This morning when I woke up I immediately noticed the difference on my right ankle. Usually when I wake up the swelling has gone down but you can still see the bump on my ankle. There was no bump on my ankle this morning. I see no difference on the left side so far but that cyst is a-lot smaller and just started to develop. I am hoping that I'm not sharing these results too soon but I am excited to see if they completely go away. I will continue to do this routine for the next couple of weeks till there are no swelling or bumps.

I had a ganglion cyst on my thumb near the lower part of my nail. Applied Frankensense oil put on a bandaid each night and after two nights it was reduced! It keeps flattening the more I use it! I’m a believer for sure!

I used frankincense essential oil for months after having removed with a needle the transparent fluid. I thought it had success but it came back. I started again using frankincense essential oil and covering it with a wrist bandaid at night in order not to evaporate. No result at all even after many months and even though I massaged the area a lot.

Has anyone who stopped using a computer mouse with that hand any success by doing that? For example not growing the cyst back after sucking the fluid.

I didn't have time applying this three times a day, I would get busy and forget. It is on my joint on my index finger. Although it was huge it didn't bother me till my hands got cold and I made a fist. So I added my drops to a bandaid, then replaced the bandaid twice a day. It's been about 3 days now and it has gone down considerably. I'm so excited. I thought about the book therapy, but I'm not into pain.😂😂

I just applied Frankincense oil to the small ganglion cyst on the underside of my left wrist. It's only been 5 minutes, but the pain is considerably reduced. A very good sign! I'll apply again before bedtime and keep it up for a few days to see what happens. My feeling is that the oil will work. Glad I checked here at Earth Clinic first.

T, I have one on the wrist and Frankincense oil did nothing for it either. Am now experimenting with Nigella Sativa oil. Anyone else know a topical treatment that works?

I have a ganglion cyst on my index finger joint. I have applied frankincense oil on the cyst for 7 days, 3 times a day. The cyst HAS NOT gone away nor has it even reduced in size. I am disappointed considering all the great reviews listed below. I will continue this treatment and report back if I see any positive results. At this point in time I do not recommend using this product for your ganglion cyst.

I had a ganglion cyst on my wrist the size of a small marble. I applied frankincense oil on it is several times a day and in a few months it was completely gone - no evidence of it ever being there. Also frankincense oil works like a charm for skin tags mine was gone in 3 days and has not returned in 2 1/2 years.

They are not kidding. Frankincense makes the cyst smaller in no time at all. I saw a big difference after two days and now four days later it continues to shrink. I'll keep applying it twice daily for a another week and I'm sure it will disappear completely.

My Cyst is inside my wrist, so might be a lot harder.Frankincense didn't work at all after two weeks of massaging with it undiluted 4 times a day. Frankly it seems worse, not better at all.

My last one in the other wrist was sucked out using a needle and ultrasound guidance by a doctor. They perforated the cell wall and it's never come back. Cost $270 though.
