How do you remove a cyst located on your hand?
If a cyst is located on your hand, what are the home remedies that can be used to remove it? I've heard of people draining it. Please do not say "go to a Doctor" this is for a coworker, not me. Serious answers only. THanks everyone! Also any website links would be helpful.
----------
depends on how big it is. if its bigger than a few millimeters theres not really any way to get rid of it yourself. but if its pretty small, sterizile a needle, poke it, and squeeze it and it will come right off (

How long after a Pilo cyst is removed, can you have sexual intercourse?
The cyst is located on the base of the tailbone. My boyfriend had the surgery 2 1/2 weeks ago. We have not had sex since.
----------
Sounds about right. Unless they used the open healing method... then it could be as long as 2 or 3 months. If he has stitches, you should be able to have careful sex about 3 weeks later. Take it easy for a couple of months just to let everything heal properly. (

they may be able to go in and cut it out and he will be ok, just hope its not cancerous. (

How much do a doctor charge to remove a ganglion cyst?
I have a ganglion cyst well at least that what the doctor think it is. They have to put me a sleep because they have to someother stuff with the bone(wrist) that the ganglion cyst is near. How much could i be looking at? Do i have to pay for the general anesthesia?
It was like this since april and it is gettin bigger...and the blood flow isnt normal...i go for surgery in a week or so...How much is the doctor bill going to be?
----------
Yes you do have to pay for the OR the Anesthesia and any other costs that come with it. There are a lot of nerves and vessels in your wrist so it is a fairly complex proceedure. My wife had one and we looked at having it removed and asked my dad a surgeon about it and he told us yes it was major and that back in the old days they would smash them with a bible breakign them up and let the body absorb them.....he was joking around about smashing it for free and we figured well we would have to wait until we could afford for my wife to have a few weeks off from work and it went away on its own so never needed surgery but yes it will be pricey and there is really no way around it.

What are the effects of have a cyst on a testicle, besides cancer?
I am very concerned for my boyfriend who has a cyst on one of his testicles. We don't know for sure if that's what it is, but we looked it up in a medical book and that's what it concluded. The only sypmtoms he has is that one of his testicles is larger than the other, and it hurts worse to be hit in that particlar testicle. What should we do? He really doesn't want to see a doctor.
----------
He needs to see his doctor. Already you expressed enough anxiety about this. The only way to know for sure what is going on and if concern is needed is: SEE HIS DOCTOR.
Other wise you both are gambling, when this is something you should NOT gamble with at all.
It could be something as simple as a cyst w/sperm in it. Easily cared for - or it could be something far more serious ... See? Only his doctor is going to be able to give him the answer he NEEDS - Guessing games are not good and that is all you both are doing now: GUESSING ... (

How will I know when my ovarian cyst ruptures as far as symtpoms?
Ihave a 2cm ovarian cyst. Go back for a ultra sound in a few weeks to watch it. Its very painful and I am off work so I am wondering when I will know or what I will feel when it ruptures if at all.
----------
Pain. Intense pelvic pain. When one of mine ruptured, I couldn't even move. Luckily it only lasts for about 30 minutes depending on the cyst. You'll know!
It felt like everything in that general area seized. My vagina, cervix, uterus, ovaries and even my rectum. If you start feeling this, take some ibuprophen, sit and wait for the pain to subside. I had some nausea as well. My nurse told me she's had women who have had to pull off the highway because it was so intense. I don't want to scare you, but just prepare you.
Another thing - it's a good idea to inform your doctor after you think it's ruptured, they'll want to get you in for an ultrasound. (

What was getting a vasectomy or removal of a sebaceous cyst like?
Im getting a cyst removed on my scrotum on monday. The procedure seems fairly similar to a vasectomy, they just make a small incision and remove the cyst and stitch it up. My problem is that I have a guitar lesson scheduled the same day. I was wondering if you think that I will be able to attend or should I cancel it?
----------
I had a vasectomy. I drove myself home, and sat on my butt for two days. That is all you will want to do. If you do much of anything else you will get an infection. (

Can a bartholins gland cyst prevent me from conceiving?
I've had a Bartholin's gland cyst on my libia majora since the birth of my first child 10years ago.I've been trying to concieve another child for about 8 months now and I'm not having any luck...Does anyone know if this Bartholins gland cyst can prevent conception from happening?
----------
Generally, issues with your Bartholin's gland (such as a cyst) will not preclude conception. I'd think your more likely issue would be pain during intercourse.

Has anyone aborted a pregnancy with the presence of an ovarian cyst? What are potential dangers?
My daughter has just been diagnosed with a complex cyst and she's, unfortunately, pregnant. Because of the impact that having a child with the wrong partner will have on her future, I hope her decision will be to abort the pregnancy. I'm seeking advice from anyone who might have had a similar situation (out of marriage) and aborted the pregnancy. Are there any serious risks to her wellbeing with this complex cyst being part of the equation?

What happens after an ovarian cyst ruptures?
I was diagnosed with a ruptured ovarian cyst 3 months ago. The symptoms prior to the rupture were pains in my lower right abdomen first in the middle of my cycle then at random times. One day I had really bad pains and an ultrasound revealed a ruptured cyst on my right ovary. My doctor prescribed some painkillers for the pain.
Since then the pain continues at mid cycle and a few days before my period. It seems to be increasing in intensity and duration, Is this normal?
----------
You could have another one. I had one removed a few months ago and it is back now and continues to grow. (
