What do I do if I have a Bone Cyst?!


Question: I've been bounced between doctors (No insurence..) And through all this they have found it's possible i have a Bone Cyst in my leg. My right thigh, the lower bone near the knee. It causes me pain to walk, and it hurts even holding my leg still. Have to constant move it. The docs won't even see me again till monday, and I work on my feet constantly all day, bending ect. IS there anything I should do? If its like a bone spur, I dont want to hurt near by muscle or anything by working...any advice?

Your bone cyst sounds like it could be a Baker's Cyst!
The cyst shoudn't hurt anything as long as it isn't pressing or
pulling on a muscle or bone! Of course you have no way of
knowing this for sure...The doctors could have been alittle more informative and told you about standing all day and the
consequences. But, they didn't and you have to make the best of it. Absolutely the longer they make you wait the more pain comes on, because of the pressure. So use your common sense and if you feel that you are harming other parts of the leg, why get off your feet so the swelling will go
down. It is awful when a person has no insurance they treat you like a low class citizen. And, that is not FAIR!!!

Thanks for your input, you seem to know what your talking about. Could you tell me your email? I have a few questions. My email is evoneli@gmail.com Report It
