What are restrictions of having an ovarian cyst?


I have an ovarian cyst that I had diagnosed two days ago, it is causing me slight pain, but not too bad. I am supposed to go out of town for a camping trip for the weekend and we'll be camping about 25 miles from the nearest town.
Is it wise to go, or do I need to be near a clinic until the cyst clears up? The cyst is 2.3 CM, and the doctor told me that it was leaking blood, probably because it was getting smaller.
----------

stay by the clinic or dont go.
im sorry and i know you will be sad.
but i had one and it was actually an ovarian torsion
i had to get my tubes intied and stapled to my side and my appendix taken out.
i threw up 45 times in one day.
and had a fever.
worst pains ever.
dont risk it!!!!

im 13 by the way. i got mine when i was 12  (+ info)

What happens after you surgically remove a pilonidal cyst?


How much time are you unable to do your regular activities (work, school, etc.)? I think it is not a very dangerous or complicated procedure but I am still scared. I don't even know why I got this thing, but it is near my lower back, on my tailbone. I want to know what happens after you surgically remove this cyst? What are the risks? Is it dangerous? Will it come back?
----------

i was 16 when i had mine removed and was back to chool within 2 and a haf weeks, the main reason for that ws the need for it 2 be dressed daily by my nurse and of course some discomfort with sitting.

i was scared before i had mine but all went ok, nothing to worry about!!

wen its removed they fill the wound (its left open 2 heal inside out) with gauze which is changed daily and covered with a large mesh plaster.

no real risks, its a relatively common procedure as i was told, done 3/4 times a month by my surgeon.

can come back, depends on how prone you are to experiencing them but is uncommon for them to return if area is kept clean and excuse this but relatively hair free as ingrown hairs are the main cause!!

hope this helps and really theres no need to woory, coming from a now 17yo girl! chekc out www.pilondial.org, that should help  (+ info)

Can I start lifting weights while my pilonidal cyst heals?


I had my pilonidal cyst drained about 3 weeks ago, now theres no pain and no lump, its gone but I know its still healing.

Can I start lifting weights again? And what are the chances of re-occurances?
----------

The cyst may be in an area where you might put too much pressure on it. So I would recommend you doing your weight lifting making sure that no physical pressure is put on the location of the cyst until you are really sure it has healed completely. Give it a total of 6 weeks after surgery and then I believe you will be just fine. No reason for making your pilonidal cyst worse.  (+ info)

What is a cyst and how do you get rid of one?


You know that bump that's right by your ankle? I have 2 of those and my mom says I have a cyst. I was wondering what it was and if I would need surgery to get it removed.
----------

Hello! without seeing it of course, it could be a synovial cyst, it is an encased tissue sorrounded by epithelium and if if is not hard or not painfull usually its best left alone, however if it is growing and is disturbing your day to day activities, best to have your family doctor look at it and maybe a referal to an orthopaedic surgeon, they usually deal with that the best

What does it feel like when an ovarian cyst bursts?


Been having alot of pain and cramping this month. Thought it was due to ovulation but cramping was there for a few days, stopped for a few, and started again. I have been told I have cysts on my ovaries. What does it feel like if a cyst bursts? Also, if you have cysts on your ovaries does that mean you have polycystic ovarian syndrome?
----------

Hi, No, having ovarian cysts doesn't mean that you have PCOS. I'll give you a link to a website that has some good information about ovarian cysts and PCOS. It explains it better than I can.

Good Luck  (+ info)

What's the difference between a pilonidal cyst and a sebaceous cyst?


I had a pilonidal cyst on my tailbone and a sebaceous cyst on my private area. Both were quite painful! How do docs make the distinciton between the two? It seems like both are caused by roughly the same thing, so what is the difference?
----------

"Schwinn" already gave you a pretty good explanation. A pilonidal cyst often but not always develops in the sacral region of the skin. The sacrum is the large, triangular bone that makes up the back of your pelvis. Pilonidal cysts sometimes appear at birth as a depression or a hairy dimple. Usually this type of cyst causes no problems but sometimes a sinus or fistula develops in early adulthood. The sinus or fistula may communicate with the skin and result in infection. A fistula may also develop to the spinal tract.

Sebum is the oily secretion of the sebaceous glands of the skin and is composed of keratin, fat and cellular debris. Sebaceous cyst is the same as an epidermoid cyst. It's benign and is in the skin (epidermis). It contains a cheesy material composed of sebum and epithelial debris.

They can usually be distinguished by location and appearance.  (+ info)
