The first thing you have to do is determine that you actually have a colloidal cyst near your breast. You should be aware of the history of colloidal cysts. Basically, they are present mostly in the brain.
In less than one per cent of cases can they be spotted anywhere else on the body. Also, colloidal cysts are a generally benign kind of growth which just sits there are does nothing at all. It is for this reason that they are known as "silent" growths.
The only problem that can typically occur due to the presence of a colloid is that while circulating, it may accidentally cause sudden coma or death. But this occurrence is so random that no statistic can be applied to it. For most part, colloidal cysts can appear in the advances years. In extremely rare cases have they been known to appear in children, and practically no cases of colloidal cysts in adults below the age of about 50 have been recorded. It is also good to know that it is extremely rare for colloidal cysts to be discovered. Only when a person is being examined for other things does the colloidal cyst show up. A brain scan, for instance, can lead to the revelation that there is a colloidal cyst present in the head of a person.
If you have a cyst that has been determined as a colloidal cyst by a doctor on an area close to your breast, then you should go back to the same doctor and ask them their medical opinion. For most part, colloidal cysts are completely benign. All they constitute is a small ball of gelatinous matter. This has no particular properties except that it is gelatinous in nature. If it lies near your breast, there should be no harm caused by it. However, it is a good idea for you to show this to a gynecologist and ask for a referral to a breast specialist. It is entirely possible that such a physician may be able to tell you far more than a regular doctor about this particular problem. A breast specialist would also be able to give you plenty of advice on reading material and what all your options are. In a case such as yours, it is far better to consult with a qualified person who is aware of all facets of this rare occurrence. It is better you do not delay the matter.
