Q: Cysts On Chest

Hi all,
I have this cyst on my chest the size of a golf ball, it's burning and growing by the day. A few years back I had one removed from my back - but it never did this. My PCP tells me to come in Monday and if it's bad he'll send me to surgeon - Thanks, make me sweat all weekend.
I've tried epsom salt, heating pads, I even rubbed Head On over it. It's starting to affect my movement and did I mention it's burning like hell.

Any suggestions to hold me over till Monday?

Thanks
D.

if it's bothering you that much it might be time to go to your emergency room. they can look at it and know if it needs to be taken care of before monday. Sorry i couldn't be of more help.

You read my mind, did that yesterday at 5:30 am
Doc said infection was spreading and was smart to get in there - have to go back tomorrow to have the packing changed.
Thanks
