it might be a harmless cyst but you need to get it confirmed by a doctor.

Well, it's not a personal experience, but a friend of mine, after trying to get pregnant unsuccessfully, found out that she had cysts. She had those removed (must have been 2 years ago) and now she has a beautiful baby boy :-)

They will put you to sleep and make a small incision near your belly button. Then they will pump you full of gas to help your other organs move out of the way so that the cyst can be easily seen.\n\nThey will remove the cyst, stitch you up and give you guidelines for taking care of the surgical site.  Pay very careful attention to those details. My site got infected because not all of the stitches dissolved.  (Though I didn't realize it.)\n\nThe gas will absorb into your system on it's own.  You will feel bloated and full from that. Don't despair. It will go away.  They may say something like 3 days, but it could take a week.\n\nGood luck!

Its really not the size that matters.   The only sure way is to have it remove and have them do a biopsy. You can have a 2cmm cyst and it could be cancersous.  The only way is to have it remove and have a biospy on it hope this helps!

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 had the same thing happen to me several years ago.  I had ovarian cysts that had to be removed surgically.

Cysts definitely need to be removed by medical professionals.  Even if it doesn't get infected, it not deal with properly it could scar badly and come back again.\n\nGo and see professional.

A cyst may or may not be a benign tumor. You should see a doctor.

Well I guess it all depends on which is worse to you, a scar or the cyst. You have to figure out which one you can live with. Whatever you do, DO NOT squeeze the cyst, it can cause infection to run throughout your body.

They generally don't disappear.  Unless of course you have a doctor remove them.  Usually they just shrink and quit causing you discomfort.

I believe you're talking about a cyst. The definition of a cyst in my medical dictionary is: 1.bladder. 2. An abnormal sac containing gas, fluid, or a semisolid material, with a membranous lining.\nNow in plain English: it can be on any part of the body and you can have more that one. Some common types are found in the groin area and are ingrown hairs, men will have them in their beards. They can be at the wrist and due to a problem of repetitive trauma. You could have a cyst anywhere due to infection. There are so many types and so many different reasons for cysts, it would take all day to explain. So I hope that some of this information was helpful to you, AND they DON'T go away on their own, they MUST be treated!

Could be a benign cyst.  Could be an infected lymph node.  Could be something more serious.  Go to your doctor right away!
