Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
A cyst can happen due to an infection, bone thinning or without any reason too. Taking antibiotics and pain killers to reduce the pain is the best way to deal with it. It has no specific reason of recurrence. You can get your blood glucose levels checked to rule out diabetes.
I hope this answers your query.

Wishing you good health.
