Hello I have several cysts on my arms and back. Some are very painful. They just look like lumps there is no discoloring. I am trying to figure out what kind of doctor i need to see. They ones on my back are really starting to cause some pain. Like I can t stand for long periods of time without having to take a break. I feel like ribs are out of place. I have already gone to the Chiro.
