Recurring Cyst

I had an ear tuck about 4 years ago. Every year after that, I had a cyst on one of my ears the size of an eraser on the back of a pencil. Each time, i've had to go for an outpatient surgery to get it removed. About 3 months ago, i've started getting a cyst on each ear and I'm planning on going in to get them removed. Once i get these removed, it will be my 5th cysts on my ears. Is this because of something that went wrong during my ear tuck or is this something else. Should I be worried about it being cancerous? Is there any cream etc. that I could use to try to make it go away?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Often, cyst and granulation tissue build up at the site of wounds and recur.  Your surgeon would have sent the tissue cut out for pathology (looking at it under the microscope) which would rule out cancer.  Ask your doc.
