How this ganglion cysts are caused is still a matter of debate so there are some theories proposed. most of they say that it is due to hydropic degeneration, other theories indicate, synovial fluid herniation from joint and trauma. So trauma in the form of sprains to certain tendons may cause it.

Are there other cysts other than ganglion in the foot?

I have a ganglion cyst in my wrist, and I personally know two people with cysts- one has a ganglion cyst on the side of her wrist and one has a ganglion cyst on the top of her hand. One can also get cysts in other places of the body (especially near joints), but I'm not sure if cysts in other areas are also called "ganglion cysts".
