cysts and tendonitis

Could it turn into carpal tunnel?
Back in february I had fallen an injured my right hand/wrist. About 5 weeks later I had a mri done and found out that I had ruptured a cyst and had tendonitis. Im still getting the cysts, I fell on it the other day again, and it ruptured a cyst, it hurt like mad. Now I have no pain. If it gets weak coud it turn in to carpal tunnel? If I were to have the fluid from the cyst taken out, whats the chance of it coming back? The cysts come and go. Right now I can see at the spot where the cyst was a kind of dark or discolored area. What is this discoloration? Its a slight discolor.

Hi there!

Carpal tunnel occurs due to neural compression. There is no reason for inflammation to turn into carpal tunnel.

Take care!
