How To Get Rid Of A Cyst

Cysts are common and occur anywhere in the body in people of all ages. These sac like structures are normally filled with gas, fluid or semi solid material and are generally benign. Superficial cysts can be felt as a lump or a knob underneath the skin. Internal cysts form in the organs like kidneys, liver, pancreas and ovaries and often do not produce any symptoms unless they become quite large so as to displace and compress normal organs and tissue.

They are mainly caused by obstructions to the flow of fluid, infection, tumors, chronic inflammatory conditions, genetic factors and defects in the developing organs of the embryo. Epidermal cysts are frequently found on the face, scalp, neck and trunk. Ganglion cysts form on the joints and tendons. Cysts within the kidneys cause polycystic kidney disease and pilonidal cysts occur at the base of the tailbone of the lower back. Infections and inflammations such as boils on the skin can also lead to cysts which are very painful and unsightly.
