Nothing to worry about The only concern is that these cysts might get infected over time and in that case you need to do incision and drainage and healing by secondary intention
Next Steps
Better to get operated now itself. It will be a small surgery and will hardly take 10-15 minutes..the case will be done under local anaesthesia ( only anaesthetising that area
