Has anybody ever gotten rid of a big ecapsulated whatyamacallit nodule in somebody's hand with a nice heavy book?


<offtopic>A ganglion cyst. I've got one on my left hand, and I can have an orthopedic surgeon remove it for a total out of pocket of around $1500 after my insurance deductible and all that. Or, I've also been told about the big heavy book trick. I honestly can't decided which option's worse: the pain of the book or the pain of the $1500 dollars. At this point, $1500 seems more painful, though.</offtopic>
