Bone cyst removal: surgical procedure for healing
Bone cyst removal is a surgical procedure that involves the removal of a cyst from the bone. The procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia and involves making an incision over the affected area. The cyst is then carefully removed using surgical instruments. Once the cyst has been removed, the area is thoroughly cleaned and the incision is closed with sutures or staples. The patient may need to wear a cast or brace to protect the affected area while it heals. Pain medication may be prescribed to manage any discomfort. Recovery time varies depending on the size and location of the cyst, but most patients can return to normal activities within a few weeks. Follow-up appointments with the surgeon will be necessary to monitor healing and ensure that there are no complications.
