Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

Since you have not mentioned size, it must be very small. Also there is no pain and discharge. Please observe the cyst for next one month and report to your doctor if there is pain or increased swelling. Most cysts are benign in nature and harmless. Your doctor means to say that the cyst must have been there for weeks before you noticed it. Please do not worry.
