A member asked:

Pain in area where i had a dermoid ovarian cyst drained one week ago? is this pain a normal healing process or could there be something wrong?

Dr. Anne Hale answered

Could be: Usually a dermoid ovarian cyst is not drained but removed from the ovary as it is likely to continue to grow. There could always be an infection but that is unusual. You should be seen by your physician.
