Unsure: You really need to be checked. If it were just your skin i would be less concerned. With your mouth also, get checked.

Painful cysts: You should see your MD ASAP for a diagnosis as this is not a dental issue.

May Not Be Related: Some people are more susceptible to cysts. If the cysts are in the exact same spot, then a doctor can remove the sack and prevent the cyst from recurring. Since you have cysts from several areas, you should see a dermatologist to help determine the cause and an appropriate treatment.
