They will apply surgery to the cyst. The patient is under medicine so that no pain is felt, but they must remove the cyst physically. Medicines typically do not work.

It depends on the type and size of the cysts. Some cysts contain air and some contain fluid. The cysts are like an abcess and if they grow to a certain size they are surgically removed. After determining a cyst is non-cancerous, some doctors take a watch and see approach if no other symptoms are present.
