My GP told me I have a cyst behind my ear and it is not possible to remove it surgicaly because it is too near my ear.
What can become of such a cyst? Could it just disappear?

A cyst is just a bubbled part of your body that contains fluid...in your case it is under your skin. It's nothing to worry about. People get cysts on their kidneys all the time where urine is stored in them. It's probably just a bit of tissue fluid that built up in that one spot. It is possible for it to go away, but don't get your hopes up. Don't worry about it though. Just keep an eye on it. If it gets really painful or much larger consult your doctor again.

Cysts are not dangerous, and as long as the doc 's diagnosis is correct, it shouldn't be a problem for you. A search on google will give you lots of info.

I have one right now and think it's just a pimple on the inside of the middle of my ear... But that might not be what you have, you should get it checked out by a doctor.

They tend just to stay there forever and stay about the same size. Some will get larger and some will dissappear, but for most people they don't change.

have you asked your gp those questions? you need to by guided by your doctor as he/she has the qualifications. if however you question your doctors ability maybe you might look into getting a second opinion from another doctor. that should settle your mind. good luck

I get cysts here and there, mainly on the breast bone.
I take garlic tablets and within a month it shrunk and went away.
Let me know how you get on
