Having Problem Of Headache, Muscle Stretch On Face. CT Scan Showed Small Polyp Retention Cyst. Suggest?

Surgery is the gold standard of treatment
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome.
Thank you for writing in.
I am sorry to hear about this sir. For your reference I shall list a few most common symptoms of the condition that is suspected, so that you can relate to them:
-Headaches
-Facial pain
-Swelling
-Fever
and a few others.
Either a polyp or cyst can get complicated by an infection or grow larger and put pressure on surrounding structures resulting in more symptoms, etc. For the same reason treatment includes:
-Medications: Antibiotics and pain management medication
-Surgery plus biopsy: Excision/removal and testing of the tissue sample
Unfortunately, the mainstay or golden standard treatment for such a condition is surgical removal sir; all other medications are used only to treat the symptoms and not the cause, so I would advice you to visit your doctor (preferably a surgeon) and get yourself adequately treated sir.
For any further clarifications, information or guidance, I am always available. You can write back to me anytime.
Wishing you a speedy recovery.
