What causes a radicular cyst?
598109
In laymens terms?  Its like an internal scar.  \n\nYour body can't remove it so its surrounds the scar and forms a cyst.  Most of the time the do not show symptoms and they found by accident during routine dental visits.  sometimes they kill the tooth were they originated.  They are formed sometimes by trauama,  sometimes we never know.  Rarely do they get so big, that they surround multiple teeth, thats the worst case scenerio and they have to cut out a section of teeth (very very rare).  Small ones can be treated by an endodontist, who basically does a small relatively simple surgury where he scoops out the cyst (enucleation); write that down. \n\nfor more info look up periapical cyst.

I had a very stubborn ganglion that would not respond to aspiration, immobilization or surgery.  After the 3rd surgery, it finally was gone for good and I haven't had any re-occurance for the last 20 years.  They put some kind of special mesh covering over my wrist bones that made the cyst unable to grow back.

what do you mean by seis? Do you mean an STD?  If you mean STD then that means its a sexually transmitted disease, and she got it by having sex with someone who has had exposure to the disease.\n\nIf you mean a cyst then that can be caused by an infected pore or an ingrown hair.  It is more common than many people think.  There is no issue with hygene there, except that if she shaves her private parts it can contribute to the ingrown hairs.  Have her Dr. look at it and drain it if possible.  If it's large enough she might need surgery to remove it so it doesn't return.  The doctor will probably also perscribe an antibacterial ointment.

The natural or old remedy is to slam a hard bound book over the area of the cyst.  It is supposed to make it burst.  Personally, I would rather you log on WebMd and type ganglion cyst treatment and see what it tells you.  Then when you make an appointment with a general surgeon (which I recommend) you will have a lot of knowledge about the ganglion and will be able to discuss options with your surgeon.\n\nYou may also want to find homeopathic remedies for ganglion cysts.  Just type it like that and see what you get on the web.\n\nI had one and it eventually went away.  So just check to make sure and....Hey,  Happy Holidays.

EDIT: The above answerer was correct (and shouldn't have deleted her answer). Teratoma, also called dermoid cyst. Didn't read your question correctly.

it could be a liquid filled cyst under the breastbone. I would go to the doctor asap!

It could be cysts that are from much earlier pimples that are sealed off and have no pore opening.  A Dermatologist (skin doctor) can inject them if they are large and they will go away.  Could also be ingrown hairs or hairs that have migrated into the skin after a hair cut.  If you have health insurance call your regular doctor and they will refer you to a dermatologist sometimes over the phone and it will be covered.  Even if no health insurance it is less expensive that most health care.  Good luck!

I really sympathize with you..In my opinion you have a disc problem as your symptoms are typically of it.The discomfort in your lower body is due to your nerves being injured by the slipped disc.Check these web pages:\n\nhttp://www.emedicinehealth.com/ganglion_cyst/article_em.htm\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ganglion_cyst\n\nGood Luck\nGaurav

An abscessed tooth is usually sensitive or painful. Abscess is usually caused by deep decay or an accident. Abscessed or traumatized (nerve damage) tooth generally requires root canal therapy or extraction. The pieces of tooth that you mention may be that of fillings (3 failed fillings for same tooth by the same dentist?). Beware, as in certain cases an abscess may compromise the immune system. Find a new dentist fast for an attempt to save this tooth.

Sounds like a Baker's cyst. These are common and usually not too serious.\nYou should still go see a doctor anyways.

Hi Becky,\n\nIt sound as though the nerve may have died in these teeth, have you had a knock/blow on these teeth?\n\nThe  'blister' above the tooth sound like a draining abcess or sinus, this is where the infected nerve tissue basically forms a boil on your gum.\n\nThe root treatment should have cured this, if it hasn't you need to get back in touch with your Dentist as the infectionmay not have settled completely.\n\nAlso ask your Dentist to explain if you don't understand something, they won't be offende and they are your teeth so you need to know !\n\nHope this helps!

The diagnosis is difficult and it depends on exactly where this bump is, the shape of it,  how old you are, if you are a man or a woman since some lesions are more prevalent in one gender or the other. Also it depends on if you have teeth or have dentures. The diagnosis could range from a bony growth (torus) to malignancy, from an abcess from a nearby tooth to a cyst from a structure in the palat. It could be a discoloration from a silver filling nearby to a lead tatoo if you are a pencil chewer.Although your dentist have not said anything to you I suggest for you to go and see you doctor or you dentist specifically for this if not just to put your mind at ease.

It could be a scab.  I get those once every few years.  Best thing to do is to see or talk to a dentist.

It most likely is a harmless cyst if it's been there for that long and hasn't caused any problems.  If it's changed shape or size, though, it may be a cause for concern.  Either way, your doctor should be able to tell you what it is and whether you need to worry about it.  Better to be safe than sorry.

The cause of ganglion cysts is not known. One theory suggests that trauma causes the tissue of the joint to break down forming small cysts, which then join into a larger, more obvious mass. The most likely theory involves a flaw in the joint capsule or tendon sheath that allows the joint tissue to bulge out.  http://www.emedicinehealth.com/articles/5247-1.asp\n\nNo one knows what triggers the formation of a ganglion. Women are more likely to be affected than men, and ganglions are common among gymnasts, who repeatedly apply stress to the wrist. Because the fluid-filled sac puts pressure on the nerves that pass through the joint, some ganglion cysts may be painful. Large ganglions, even if they are not painful, are unattractive. Smaller ganglions that remain hidden under the skin (occult ganglions) may be quite painful.   http://www.pccdocs.com/patientresources/patient_pamphlets/ganglion_cyst.htm

It sounds like your cyst is infected and inflammed.  A cyst like that may need to be drained.  My wifes a picker...she would pick it.  if someone tries to "pop it", be extremely clean i.e. alcohol. benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid cream, and even tea tree oil may kill the bacteria and halt the infection.  My mother swears by tea tree oil on my fathers back.\n\nA doctor would "Lance" it or "drain" it and give you antibiotics most likely.\n\nIf you notice you are running  a fever...you may need antibiotics. Good Luck.

Please schedule an appointment to go to your doctor immediately. No one here, myself included, is qualified to give you an answer. I had a similar problem (in the armpit as well), and it turned out to be a cyst the size of a gumball. It was removed under local anesthetic. My arm was sore for a day or two, and then I was fine. However, I am not implying you have a cyst in your's as well. What I am suggesting is you make a doctor's appt. first thing tomorrow morning.
