Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

The minor surgery such as cyst removal are generally done under local anesthesia.

So,yes,you probably with have just your shoulder numbed.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
