What Causes A Ganglion Cyst On Right Wrist Area Near Thumb?

Hello. My shoulder blade to my finger tips tingles and my forearm burns. The tingling sensation gets worse when I sit on a hard surface or wash my hands. Two years ago, I tore my rotator cuff and ruptured a tendon on the same side as the tingling is now happening. I also have a ganglion cyst on my right wrist area near my thumb. I m not sure if this is all related.
