I have a cyst on my breast....?

Question

My Doctor said he will remove it, I forgot to ask how?

Do any of you know how this cyst will be removed?

Also a bit worried, Does having a cyst on your breast mean you are more likely to get breast cancer?

Answer 1

i am assuming if your GP is going to do this himself, it can only be a superficial sebaceous cyst in the skin. If this is the case, it means a local anaesthetic, simple excision and a few small stitches.

Answer 2

A minor surgical procedure will remove the cyst and no it does not mean you are more likely to get breast cancer.

Answer 3

A minor surgery procedure and No having a cyst does not increase your chances for breast cancer.

Good luck
