Observe and leave it alone if it is not very painful. If fit and willing then surgery under local anaesthesia can be done. It's a big cyst and aspiration can be attempted to reduce the size.

Operative intervention is the treatment of choice in this case.
Else can be aspirated using wide bore needle and syringe.
