My mom, 50 years old, has a rigid-like substance on her right hand joints. What are the reasons for this?

Dr. Nadeen Hilal Rheumatology
Usually it is a simple cyst, which is a fluid filled sac. Unless she has a joint disease or symptoms secondary to compression of nearby structures, it is usually a self limiting condition that requires no treatment.
