A friend had one on her leg, and could barely walk. She thought it was a spider bite or something. She said it was very painful. But they just numbed it, cut and drained it, and gave her some antibiotics.

Apply pressure and keep it above your heart.\n\nWhen it has clotted (stopped bleeding) clean it with alcohol and wrap it with a clean bandage (or Band-Aid if small enough).

Could be a cyst, they usually resolve themselves but sometimes you have to have surgery to remove them. If they rupture believe me you'll know, this hurts really bad.If I was you, I would insist that the doctor run more tests (ultrasound). Keep on him until you feel satisfied, if he doesn't want to help you find a new doctor. You should not be in pain all the time.

If you have been to a doctor, and had medical imaging tests, and there are no doubts that you have a cyst in your breast, you leave it alone.  Cysts come and go (usually with your menstrual period) and they NEVER become cancers.  Cysts are just fluid filled spaces.  If you have them drained with a needle, over half will return.  We only drain cysts if they appear atypical (therefore, we cannot be sure they are just cysts), or if they get so large that they are painful.  If you have a problem with cysts, try reducing your caffeine intake (soda, coffee, teas).  Caffeine increases breast cysts and tenderness in many women.

Dirt or foreign bodies get into areas of the body they were not meant to be. Antibodies surround the foreign body. This is the body's way of trying to expel the foreign body. When it can not be expelled, the cyst forms with a sac around it.

What it really was is a boil where a pore in the skin dried out and caused an infection under the skin. After several days it gets larger till the skin can not hold it anymore and it pops with a smelly green ''puss''emerging from the break in the skin as well as a white ''core'' (thats the ''plug'' in the skin). If it becomes too painful, see your doctor, he can freeze and lance it for you. Be sure to keep it clean and covered and apply some antibiotic cream on it to avoid infection.

I've had many cysts and yes, I get them aspirated and yes, they can (and mine have) filled back up again.  Some cysts have come back numerous times.\n\nI've also had a lumpectomy for breast cancer....7 years ago.

I would say yes, even if it has not begun to bother you as yet. I am a nurse with over 14 years experience and I am certain you are aware of the dangers diabetics lend themselves to with infections and other "little" things left to fester. Just get an all clear from your physician. Or perhaps some intervention may be required. At the very least I say better safe versus allowing a cyst to possibly result in what could have been a preventable complication.

Its probibly a cyst or some fatty tissue that needs to be drained.  Definately see a doctor to have this done to ensure that it is not something more serious.
