Suggest Treatment For Lump On Wrist Of A Child

i have a 23 month old daughter that has a large lump on her right wrist im assuming its a cyst. I wasn t alarmed at first because it was small but ive noticed it has gotten larger. My daughter can determine a bo bo and she acts as if it doesn t bother her. Im making her a appointment but should I be worried and could this be cancerous?
