A member asked:

Good day, i have a cyst on my foot and i want to drain since my vein runs over it. i had it for 4 years now and its starting to be painful. thank you ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See a doc: Cysts have their own wall, so if you drain it, it will refill again. The cyst wall requires removal in a minor surgery, so discuss this with your family doc for best options. In the meantime, try to avoid direct pressure on the cyst to prevent accidental rupture and possible infection. Good luck
