Ok to call your doc : Not knowing where your cyst is located, or if you have multiple cysts. The general principle of monitoring comes in. Okay to call your doc and ask these questions. Fever and elevated wbc/white blood cell count is concerning. Your doc will decide about excision and/or antibiotics.
