Treatments used in mucous cysts that are not very severe include:
Cyst and mucocele of nose and nasal sinus J34. 1 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM J34. 1 became effective on October 1, 2021.
A mucous cyst is a sac filled with fluid that appears on the finger, above the joint located next to the nail (the distal interphalangeal joint). The cyst can often thin the skin around the nail.
Ganglion cysts are very common benign fluid-filled cysts that usually occur near joints or tendons. Mucous cysts are just a particular type of ganglion cysts that occur around the finger joint around the base of the fingernails.
Mucoid cysts are fluid-filled sacs that usually develop on or near the joints of the fingers, although the toes can be affected. Typically benign, they feel like firm, rubbery lumps, and are usually not painful unless they grow large enough to put pressure on nerves.

Mucous cysts are small, fluid-filled sacs that form on the fingers and usually develop in patients 50 to 70 years of age. The mucous cyst usually appears at the joint nearest to the fingernail, called the distal interphalangeal (DIP) joint, and can be found on the thumb or on any of the other fingers.
A ganglion is a soft tissue tumor that grows near a joint or tendon. A myxoid cyst involves soft tissue and grows near the last joint of a finger or toe and often stems from osteoarthritis.
Ganglion cysts arise from myxoid degeneration of the connective tissue of the joint capsule, are filled with viscoid fluid or gelatinous material, and have a fibrous lining. Synovial cysts also contain gelatinous fluid and are lined with cuboidal to somewhat flattened cells consistent with a synovial origin.
There is no known cause for ganglion cysts, although they sometimes appear in response to joint or tendon irritation. When the cysts develop at the end of a finger joint, they are typically associated with arthritis of that joint. This happens more often in women over the age of 40.
A myxoid cyst is a small, benign lump that occurs on fingers or toes, near a nail. It's also called a digital mucous cyst or mucous pseudocyst. Myxoid cysts are usually symptom-free. The cause of myxoid cysts isn't certain.
Digital mucous cysts (DMCs) are benign ganglion cysts of the digits, typically located at the distal interphalangeal (DIP) joints or in the proximal nail fold. They usually occur on the hands, although they have also been noted on the toes. The etiology of these cysts is uncertain but may involve mucoid degeneration.
