It’s an intraosseous ganglion.

An intraosseous ganglion (IOG) is a rare, benign, mucin-filled cystic lesion occurring within the subchondral medullary bone, commonly near joints such as the tibia, femur, or carpal bones. They often cause localized pain, though many are found incidentally. Treatment typically involves surgical curettage and bone grafting.

Sounds so good, everyone should have one. :)

Ooh-aah.

Now we know why you are always “feelin’ it in ya bones”.

Are you getting it cut out?

From the internets:

Key Components of the Procedure

Access: The surgeon locates the cyst, often using fluoroscopic (X-ray) guidance. This can be done via an open incision or through arthroscopic (minimally invasive) techniques.

Curettage: The cyst content is removed, and the sclerotic (hardened) bony rim is scraped out (curetted) using a surgical curette or shaver.

Bone Grafting: The void left after removing the cyst is filled with bone grafting material (autograft, such as from the iliac crest or radius, or allograft) to stimulate bone healing and strengthen the weakened area.

Stabilization: In some cases, if the bone is significantly weakened, temporary immobilization in a splint or internal fixation may be used.
