Suggest Treatment For Cyst In Bladder Causing Pain On Right Side

I ve had pain in my right side for about 6 months now. Dr. at first thought it was a UTI but nothing was really done. I recently went back and had a CT-scan and was told that it was a Cyst in bladder, and it should be gone in 5 days. I was told at the pharmacy when getting my medication that it most likely wouldn t be enough, as it was for 3 days, and if it was a cyst in the bladder it should be removed. I m not sure what to believe, and also don t want to wait to long if it gets worse, I m also told that a cyst in that area is really cancer...is that true? I m really freaking out about this, and it seems the Dr. s I go to just want to play the waiting game although it has been 6 months of this now.

Urologist,  's  Response
Hello and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist, let me ask you, in event of a medical problem, do you rely on a doctors' treatment or a pharmacists' ??
A doctor undergoes rigorous training before starting practice. Later,he undergoes further training, before practicing as specialist.
A pharmacist is only trained to dispense medicines. Don't get confused.
A cyst is not the same as cancer, probably diagnosed by your pharmacist.
If you want an expert advice, you're welcome to send the CT scan report here, in my name. Wish you well.
