What Is The Treatment For Cyst In The Liver And Pain In The Rib Cage?

I have been having pains under my right rib cage, my doctor suspected gallbladder disease or stones, but that is not the case. An ultrasound found what looks to be a benign cyst in my liver, and a blood test revealed H. Pylori. I am on meds for the latter, but still have the pain under my rib cage and through to my lower back....any ideas?

General Surgeon 's  Response
1) pain under rib cage on right side with liver cyst >5cm need treatment. treatment for this varies depending upon location of cyst.
2) generally such cysts doesn't cause pain. only large simple benign cysts develop symptoms.
