A 2008 article in Pediatrics (the journal of the AAP) recommends rear-facing till age 2. âA recent analysis of the protection provided in rear-facing compared with forward-facing car safety seats has revealed that children under the age of 2 years are 75% less likely to die or sustain serious injury when they are in a rear-facing seat.â.
Infection â the cyst fills with bacteria and pus, and becomes an abscess. If the abscess bursts inside the body, there is a risk of blood poisoning (septicaemia). Peritonitis â if an internal cyst bursts, there is a risk of peritonitis, which is inflammation of the membrane lining the abdominal wall.

These symptoms can also be confusing because they appear similar to the symptoms of pregnancy. It is thus best to go to a doctor to get it verified.
