Linking Cysts to Steroids?

I find it slightly coincidental that both Giambi and now A-Rod have come down with cysts shortly after being caught using PED. I'm no doctor but it seems like this could be linked...
Any doctors know about this?

mmmmmmmmmmmmmm i think your reaching on this one.
you can't just say steroids, when these guys are also using other drugs such as pain killers (whether its barbituates, cortizone shots, etc) to help mask any other injuries they may sustain.
at the elite level there is no telling what other drugs some of these guys may be on besides just steroids.

They were talking about this on First Take yesterday. They had a doctor on who denied that there was any connection whatsoever.

that's 2 people out of 104 that tested positive. So, 102 out of 104 did not. I'd say a more logical assumption would be that PED's prevent cysts.

Abscesses could form if the injection is not clean or bacteria is introduced. Otherwise, probably not
