Excuse me but, that was the dumbest thing you could have done. Had that cyst been tumorous you may have spread it. This, besides the infection therein.
This is one reason I don't recommend a chiropractor, they don't have that much medical training and are good for one thing, massaging the muscles, that's all. They are not doctors.
Go see your primary physician and tell him what happen, he'll most likely take a bunch of X-Rays and MRI's and then operate.
I think you should start over with your primary doctor. He/She will either help you or refer you to the right kind of specialist. I'm so sorry this happened to you, but I think it'll be fixable. Don't give up!
Good luck, hon! :)
