A member asked:
Is it normal for a doctor to want to wait and see if my complex cyst bursts?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Ans: Well perhaps. Need a little more history. Has the cyst been there for a while and has there been enlargement in size? Need some more information. But most often the cyst will rupture on its own

YES: YES. This is a conservative approach pending a decision to open the cyst surgically.
