Mucous Retention Cyst
Doctor, I'm 15 years old. I have swelling in my inner cheek for 1 month. This swelling reduced after taking antibiotic (Flucoxacillin 500 MG, 1/1/1) for 6-7 days but not fully gone. I stopped the medicine before 18-20 days ago. The swelling has reduced but not fully gone. In a online consultation with doctor, he told me that it is Mucous Retention Cyst. Now, will this Mucous Retention Cyst gone its own or by using medicine? Please help, doctor!
