I have a digital myxoid cyst on my middle right hand finger. Dermatologist tried freezing it, but it just came back worse and painful. I started usinf Prid Ointment with bandaid a week ago, changing bandage and reapplying ointment several times a day. My cyst is almost gone. I’ll continue with the ointment and bandages in hopes it will completely disappear. My dermatologist suggested surgery. I want to avoid that.

update: the cyst kept coming back with this treatment. I'm now using Ichthammol Ointment 20%, which works much better.
