Thanks a lot, I will check after my period passes. And yes , I need to stay away from chocolate and salty food.
Hi,
Cysts are so common that almost every woman will have some during her lifetime.
These cysts are related to the increasing hormonal fluctuations and the pain is particularly felt prior to the menstrual cycle and subside after the menses finish.When cysts are very large and painful,they can be aspirated by a fine needle.This is a painless procedure in which the fluid is aspirated from the cyst and the cyst disappears and so will the pain. If the fluid is blood-stained, it will be sent to the lab for analysis.
Avoiding caffeine, (Coffee,chocolate and colas) salty food and fatty food can lessen the pain considerably.
Pain is almost never associated with breast cancer and cysts do not increase the risk of cancer. The only risk, if you have frequent cysts, is mistaking a lump for a cyst and not having it checked out. Hence, every time a new cyst or lump occurs, it must be checked by a physician.
Take care ....
