Hello,
Surgical removal of ganglion is although not a permanent treatment but it can help you in relieving symptoms.In some cases it may give you relief in symptoms caused by compression to adjacent structures.
If it is large then i shall advise you for surgical removal.You may also discuss effect of local steroid injection from your doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Mukesh Tiwari
