So sorry, we feel your pain! I just dealt with one over New Years and was able to get the swelling to go down and the cyst to basically just go away on its own in just a few days. The calamine, witch hazel and tea tree did not work for me but it doesn't hurt to try since you are going to be waiting several weeks anyway. If you want to try what I did after trying that though you can definitely do that too and I'd love to know if it helps.
If you want to read my whole post here is the link:

To sum it up this is what I did:
steep a Chamomile Tea bag in half a mug of hot water
add a few drops of Lavender essential oil
add a few drops of Tea Tree Oil
(the type I used is a 20% dilution - It's "Desert Essence Kinder To Skin Tea Tree Oil")
Keep the tea bag in the mug and let it cool so that the temp is more like lukewarm. Remove the tea bag and stir to mix everything up. Take a couple cotton balls and soak them in the mixture, then squeeze *most* of the liquid out, but still leave so they are wet but not dripping. Situate the cotton balls so that they are touching the affected side/area and then what I did was just wear a pad to keep them in place and soak up any extra liquid. I kept them like that for an hour at a time and did it 3 times the first day and then once the next morning.
By the 3rd time there was already a big difference and the next morning it was hardly there at all but I still did it a 4th time for good measure.
I also had some natural lotion (body butter made mostly of coconut oil and shea butter) which I put a little bit in a separate container and added drop of lavender oil to it, mixed it together and applied to the area in between using the cotton balls.
Now I am guessing that mine was not to the degree that you are dealing with currently so if you decide to try my method or any of the others and any of them hurt or do not feel right to you definitely discontinue them right away. Hopefully you will get some relief or improvement from them and we'd love to hear if you do or if you find any other method that works.
