I have a cyst behind my ear. Is it dangerous?!


Question:

I have a cyst behind my ear. Is it dangerous?

My GP told me I have a cyst behind my ear and it is not possible to remove it surgicaly because it is too near my ear.
What can become of such a cyst? Could it just disappear?


Answers:

A cyst is just a bubbled part of your body that contains fluid...in your case it is under your skin. It's nothing to worry about. People get cysts on their kidneys all the time where urine is stored in them. It's probably just a bit of tissue fluid that built up in that one spot. It is possible for it to go away, but don't get your hopes up. Don't worry about it though. Just keep an eye on it. If it gets really painful or much larger consult your doctor again.
