Sure: Bone pain can be troublesome, and a cystic bone lesion can certainly cause it. Make sure you get the cystic bone lesion evaluated. Best wishes.

Yes: It is possible depending upon the size and location. Large subcortical cysts can also place the bone at risk for fracture with less trauma than a bone without the cyst. Consult an orthopedist for your specific issue.
