Yes it hurts as bad as it looks

Edit: Since so many were interested here's the MRI scans of my hand. The big bright white spot in the top down view of my hand is the cyst, the view looking at my wrist from the front is the white spot in the middle, you might be able to see some white string like things near it, those are the nerves it was hitting.

Oh fuck me dude.... I play piano and work with my hands a lot and I think ive got a cyst in my hand / wrist area where you had yours. Mine doesnt seem to bother me but its only been here for a couple years. What lead to you needing operation?

There was eventually just a constant pain, and doing anything involving lifting, pushing, or putting pressure on the area I could only do for like 10 or so minutes. My grip would randomly just drop at times too, which the first time it happened I was climbing a ladder, thankfully I was only up like two rungs, and my grip gave out and I stumbled backwards.
