use heating pad: apply a heating pad directly on the cyst for 20 to 30 minutes 3 to 4 times. do this for up to 10 days and see if the cyst gets smaller. some cysts contain sebum, which melts under high temperatures, and gets reabsorbed and processed by the body. take note this method will not work if your cyst doesn't contain hardened sebum, have your doctor examine you cyst to determine its contents.

hey there adibahafiz,
there are a couple of things you can try.
One of them is to get organic cabbage, white and organic if possible, take some of the big leaves of and cut the stems flat. Then heat them up in hot water, dry them and put them on the cyst over night. -Cabbage has great healing power.
Organic potatoes are helping too, you put the raw shredded potatoes externally on the cyst.
And finally there is a homeopathic remedy called "Silicea"- You can buy those little pills which taste like nothing at the health store or online from a company called "Schuessler" they help with inflammations.
I hope you will get rid of this soon!
Let us know how it goes.
