My sister-in-law is about 5 weeks pregnant and has a cyst--How can this harm the baby?

It probably won't hurt the baby at all. Lots of women get cysts both while pregnant and not pregnant. It will probably rupture on its own and cause no problems at all. If it doesn't rupture, it could cause discomfort for her, but again will probably not cause any harm for the baby. If she has just recently seen this cyst ( like during an ultrasound )women will have a cyst sometimes on the ovary that they ovulated from. It goes away on its own. Don't worry, I am sure everything will be fine!

Probably not. The medical people will probably watch on the ultrasound and if she has any pain.
Reply:It won't. My wife had a huge cyst when she first got pregnant. The doctor said it was no danger.

Where is the cyst?


I was told by my dr that i have a 2cm/mm cyst in my left kidney, i have been having alot of back pain, nausea,

You could also be having an infection in your kidney going on or even a kidney stone. I would recommend getting back in touch with your doctor to see what else they think could be going on.


I have a massive growth on my overies could it be a cyst?

yes, or ovarian cancer.....get to a doctor ASAP.

I have a massive growth on my overies could it be a cyst?
yes... go to a doctor
Reply:how do you know that u have a massive growth on your ovaries? Obviously you had an ultrasound or an Xray, why didnt you ask the doctor or tech that did the ultrasound? U MUST DO THAT. DO NOT RELY ON YAHOO ANSWERS.
Reply:Wouldn't you rather it be a cyst than anything else? A cyst can be taken care off.
Reply:Yes, but only your gynocologist would be able to determine that- book an appointment!


What is the best type of wrist brace to wear for ganglion cyst stabalization?

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 is the best type of wrist brace to wear for ganglion cyst stabalization?
If you just had your cyst aspirated you can get a standard wrist brace that covers your forearm and goes down to your hand (similar to a bowling brace) you can pick them up at any drug store. This will immobilize your wrist for a few days while the wrist comes back into place naturally. If you still have the cyst and you are trying to immobilize it... if it is giving you that much trouble see your doctor and have them drain it. Well worth the visit. I just had mine drained again an this time the doc shot it full of cortiszone. Seems to have done the trick.


Good Luck!

Where can I buy Pine tar, and will it help my acne cyst???

you can get pine tar soap from www.drleonards.com but i dont know if it will help or not. just go to http://personal-care.drleonards.com/Pers... it should take you right to it.

Where can I buy Pine tar, and will it help my acne cyst???
Well there is a salve called Ichthamol that contains pine tar...it is the color of tar obviously. You can get this cream at any drug store...even Walmart has it. It has drawing out properties but you don't need a lot. I do know that people use it on boils to draw out all the puss within it. I have used it as well on pimples and it has been effective. Apply it to the area and put a bandaid on it. It's best to do it at night before you go to bed. The other thing I would suggest is to try drying it out with Fels Nafta soap. It comes in a bar and is yellow in color. When I was a teenager my dermatologists told me to try it. It will certainly dry out the acne. Hope this information is helpful to you.

What would happen if i got on birth control with a tumor/cyst in breast?

I have a benign tumor in my breast..meaning it wont cause any harm like death or side effects besides pain the doctor said its up to me if i want to get surgery and get it out but since im not big chested, if they remove the tumors my breast will dimple so imma just leave it in. So i want to get on the birth control pill but i was told the estrogen in the bc pill irritates the tissue around the tumor. Will i hurt myself if i got on the pill?

No one can and will take upon him or herself such a risk as advising you to take or not to take b/c. I suggest you read some of these sites:

and decide what risks you want to take upon yourself. Rembmer that you can use and IUD without hormones.


Does the surgery cause alot of pian and how long does it last after having a testicular cyst removed?

That will depend on how big the cyst was and if it had touched nerves etc. really the best person to answer this would be the surgeon who is doing the procedure. The cases i have know the prognoses was good and they fully recovered very quickly. Are they sure it is a cyst they are dealing with as they are fairly innocent and normally benign,





I hope you are feeling better soon and don't worry i am sure you are in good hands.

Is lipoma usually painful? Any other thoughts of a painful movable cyst/tumor?

It depends on where it is located and how deep the fatty cyst is. I had one removed that was on my abdomen, it was quite deep and bigger than the surgeon anticipated. But, it didn't really hurt too much. Each of us have our own level of pain tolerance. As a rule, any surgical incision that is located more to the center of the body ( the nerve endings towards the center of the body are overlapped or doubled up),and if it near a bony prominence ( shoulder blade, hip bone etc.), it can tend to more uncomfortable because there is less meat/tissue over bony areas. Sense the lipoma is already painful then once it is removed and healed, the pain that you are now having will go away.


What is the easiest way to get pregnant after undergoing ovarian cyst removal?

haha


get sex all over again

What is the easiest way to get pregnant after undergoing ovarian cyst removal?
Avoid becoming stressed about getting pregnant. I had my left ovary removed because the doctor suspected cancer when I was 21. I had one child but wanted another. For to years I couldn't get pregnant.


I finally resolved myself to being happy with one child, when she was four I signed up for nursing school/college and became pregnant soon after which delayed my educaiton for another three years.


Also I would say that after surgery, you need to just give your body time to heal.

i had a cyst removed in my foot and they told me that it's possible for those kinds of things to come back...





good luck
Reply:I'm sorry - in your hand or in your head? I would assume hand because you said you can move your fingers. But either way, if you're feeling pain, at the very least contact the doctor who performed the surgery. Describe the symptoms to him or her and let your doctor decide. As far as I'm concerned, any time there's pain involved, especially at a previous surgical site, there should be a doctor involved.
Reply:My mother and a friend both as "cyst-y" people. They have to have them removed, too. I find it odd that your surgeon didn't warn you they may come back, for example, I had a bone tumour and my doctor told me they sometimes come back. Both my mother and friends' doctors told them, too. You may want to call the nurse at the orthopedic surgeon's office or if you went to another kind of doctor before, you should consult with an orthopedict surgeon. That's their specialty.

What is the best way to cure an "open" infected sebaceous cyst?

A sebaceous, or epidermal, cyst is a small, movable lump under the skin. It forms when surface skin cells move deeper into the skin and multiply. These cells form the wall of the cyst and secrete a soft, yellowish substance called keratin, which fills the cyst. If the wall of the cyst is ruptured, the keratin is discharged into the surrounding skin, which causes irritation and inflammation.





The cyst may remain small for years, or it may continue to get larger. These cysts are rare in children but common in adults. Sebaceous cysts are not cancerous.





Symptoms


A cyst is a movable, dome-shaped, smooth-surfaced mass that varies in size from a few millimeters to several centimeters (from less than a quarter of an inch to more than 2 inches. Sebaceous cysts appear mainly on the face, ears, chest and back, but they can occur on almost any skin surface.





Diagnosis


Your doctor can examine the swelling and tell you if you have a cyst.





Expected Duration


A cyst may disappear on its own or remain indefinitely.





Prevention


There is no way to prevent sebaceous cysts.





Treatment


A sebaceous cyst usually does not need to be treated unless it is infected or is causing a cosmetic problem. Infected cysts usually are treated by draining the fluid and removing the shell that make up the cyst wall. You also may be treated with antibiotics if the skin around the cyst is also infected. If a cyst is causing irritation or cosmetic difficulty, your physician can remove it by making a small incision in the skin and emptying the contents of the cyst and its wall.





When To Call A Professional


If you have a new swelling on your skin that lasts for more than two weeks, contact your doctor, especially if it is painful.





Prognosis


The outlook for sebaceous cysts is excellent. Many cysts have no symptoms and some will go away on their own. Cysts can return. Draining cysts or removing them surgically usually does not lead to any complications or side effects.








Home treatment for a sebaceous cyst





Home treatment for a lump on the scrotal skin, such as a sebaceous (epidermal) cyst, may relieve symptoms but may not make the cyst go away. A sebaceous cyst is a sac filled with a cheeselike, greasy material (sebum) caused by plugged ducts at the site of a hair follicle. Sebaceous cysts most often appear on the scalp, ears, face, back, or scrotum. Hormone stimulation or injury may cause them to enlarge or become infected.





Signs and symptoms include a bump or lump under the skin that is:


* Firm and easily moveable.


* Yellow, white, or flesh-colored. It can turn bright red if injured or infected.


* Painless (but can be painful if injured or infected).


* 1 in. (2.5 cm) or smaller to 4 in. (10.2 cm).





To treat a lump that may be caused by infection under the skin:


* Do not squeeze, scratch, drain, open (lance), or puncture the lump. Doing this can irritate or inflame the lump, push any existing infection deeper into the skin, or cause severe bleeding.


* Keep the area clean by washing the lump and surrounding skin well with an antibacterial soap.


* Apply warm, wet washcloths to the lump for 20 to 30 minutes, 3 to 4 times a day. If you prefer, you can also use a hot water bottle or heating pad over a damp towel. The heat and moisture can soothe the lump, increase blood circulation to the area, and speed healing. It can also bring a lump caused by infection to a head (but it may take 5 to 7 days). Be careful not to burn your skin. Do not use water that is warmer than bath water.


* If the lump begins to drain pus, apply a bandage to keep the draining material from spreading. Change the bandage daily. If a large amount of pus drains from the lump, or the lump becomes more red or painful, evaluation by a health professional may be needed.

What is the best way to cure an "open" infected sebaceous cyst?
Antibiotics. You need to see your doctor. They could also drain it, clean it out or remove the whole thing. Then you won't have to worry about it anymore. My brother-in-law had a sebaceous cyst removed. No problems.
Reply:Antibiotics. Then, if it is large, have it removed. Sometimes these things keep coming back.

What type of sugary do they use to remove a benign cyst?

its a minor surgery to remove a cyst. local anesthesia injected directly around the cyst. there'll be several injections around the site. the surgery takes less than an hour. you can probably go home around an hour or 2.





the only problem would be taking care of the incision. keep it clean. and change the dressing everyday while applying antiseptic. you can use over the counter dressing (something like stickers) to prevent it from getting wet when you take a bath.





don't worry. majority of it is benign.

What type of sugary do they use to remove a benign cyst?
that would be a cut and splice routine.
Reply:Was very tempted to say castor or demerera. Usually an incision to remove the cyst and surrounding tissue.. Depends on where it is and size. Sometimes can use keyhole micro surgery to minimise scarring but not always, You doctor or consultant will advise you .
Reply:Sugary? No, they use molasses.
Reply:A cystectomy.


Has anyone had plastic surgery on their face to remove a cyst or mole?

I need details about options for removing a benign mole from my cheek. My research so far shows that there is no method that doesn't involve some risk of scarring.

Has anyone had plastic surgery on their face to remove a cyst or mole?
My cousin had some facial cysts removed and they turned out to be a lot bigger than expected. She had to have a fat transplant from her leg to her face to fill the hole. Considering all the pulling around she had the result was great. I know where the scar is and I can hardly see it. If you didn't know it was there you wouldn't see it! Plastic surgeons can do an excellent job and scarring is minimised;
Reply:As for details not sure what your looking for , but i had a benign lump removed from under my right cheek close to my chin several yrs ago and for a few months there was some light scarring but shortly thereafter you could not tell and to this day it is not visible, had it done by a plastic surgeon who i would go back to if need be.. good luck but don't worry too much i think you'd be fine and happy about the results
Reply:Your research is right. There is no method to remove the mole that wont leave scarring. You can always try a plastic surgeon, they do that stuff all the time.


Can I take abortation pills (mifeprex) if I have an ovarian cyst or a black pearl?

is there a risk? or what should i be awared of?

Can I take abortation pills (mifeprex) if I have an ovarian cyst or a black pearl?
are you preg and wanna take abortion pills ? or you wanting to get rid of cysts ? i had cyst on my ovaried holy painful it was the worse in the world i would have rather gave birth than ever had to deal with that but i say no to either regardless im against abortion so sympathy from me there sorry .... and for cysts i say hell no go to dr ... right now
Reply:I don't know what a black pearl is, but an ovarion cyst those just go away on their own most of the time. Some women have alot of pain from them and some don't have any. I'v had one since I first got pregnant and I'm 11 weeks now and I don't feel anything out of it the doctor just told me it was there and it should go away by 12 weeks. So I don't see what taking the abortion pill would hurt.
Reply:you should be aware of the fact that the abortion pill can kill you. It is very dangerous and you have to get a perscription for it. I don't know if you can take it with these conditions, talk to a doctor. Put your baby up for adoption. Don't kill an innocent baby and put your self at risk.
Reply:abortion pills are dangerous even if you are in good health. Did you know that you have to go to your dr. or clinic, and they will give you a shot, then you have come back and take another pill- and during this whole time- you will be cramping, like you have never cramped before and you can start bleeding and then may need a transfusion- you hope and pray that you get back to the drs. in time to actually "deliver" the fetus- Baby really- some women go through that alone at home. Later when you may desire to have a child you may not be able to or may miscarry. It is not safe for you.
Reply:If you're saying you want to take the abortion pill to get rid of a cyst, it won't work. The cyst is in your ovary, not your uterus. The pill will make your uterus empty its contents, but anything in your ovary will still be there.

Why is it so hard to get pregnant,with having ovarian cyst. For others who get pregnant easily?

So how do you know ,when your ovulating with ireggular periods.

Why is it so hard to get pregnant,with having ovarian cyst. For others who get pregnant easily?
I have PCOS(poly-cystic Ovarian Syndrome) and hte way my doc explained it to my hubby and family while I was still under the surgery meds , my ovaries have a hard shell around them consisting of small cysts and so that shell could not be punctured by either and egg or sperm , that is why I was not ovuating and could not become pregnant. He perscribed me clomid, along with the Metformin I was already taking. That caused my ovaries to swell large enough to force ovulaiton and also make them swell large enough to crack the shell allowing the egg to be released/sperm to enter and be fertilized. may not be the same in your case but somehting you may want to ask your doctor about. My first cycle of 50mgs of clomid was not enough to crack the shell , on 2nd cycle and he raised it to 100mg and ovuated just fine 2dpo now and hoping we suceeded!! Fingers Crossed!!





Good Luck to you!

Reply:Ovarian cysts release extra estrogen into your body. High estrogen levels can keep you from ovulating or cause egg quality to be poor. Usually, doctors will need to treat the cyst/s until they go away or at least stop producing extra estorgen before you will be able to get pregnant.
