What Causes Red, Itchy And Painful Ganglion Cyst On The Back Near The Kidneys?
I think that I may have a ganglion cyst on my back on the left side about when your kidney is located. it was drained before month ago by my former doctor, but has returned, its red, itchy, and has a black dot in the center like an eye. sometimes painful to the touch.

Hello,
The symptoms are suggestive of an abscess not a ganglion cyst.
As of now you can start a short course of antibiotics and consult a general surgeon and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
