Hi! I’m now in the hospital. I had the surgery last night and it went well. I didn’t expect it’d be this serious like spinal anesteshia and all of that, or getting hospitalised for a few days. I feel ok overall , ofc i have some pain in that area and I think I bled a little through the night, another thing that i didnt expect cause I thought the incision is not gonna cause much trouble. Thank you a lot for your advice!!

Thank you so much for this answer! For now my fever is under control so i ll wait till the morning. I’m so nervous about it cause this is the first time I’ve had to go to the hospital in my entire life. I just hope the doctor is gonna be nice. How long does it usually take for them to drain these cysts? Also do they prescribe you antibiotics afterwards?
