Surgical Therapy. Surgery currently is considered the definitive treatment for mucous cysts. It is recommended in the presence of ongoing pain, recurrent infection, or chronic drainage. Preoperative planning is limited, in that much of the procedure is based on intraoperative findings.
To prevent infection or tissue damage, do not try to open or remove cysts at home. Frequent or recurring cysts may require further medical treatment. Treatments used in mucous cysts that are not very severe include: 1  laser therapy: a small, directed beam of light is used to remove the cyst. 2  cryotherapy: the cyst is removed by freezing.
