A sebaceous cyst is a small lump or bump on the skin which is non-cancerous. It is most frequently found on the face, neck, upper chest and upper back. However, cysts can occur anywhere else on the skin.
Usually, a sebaceous cyst grows gradually and does not cause any pain. However, they may become infected or inflamed. Additionally, the surrounding skin may turn red, sore, and tender.
A foul-smelling, cheese-like material may sometimes drain from your cyst. In these cases, treatment can reduce the discomfort you experience and improve the appearance of your skin.
Cysts can be drained with a needle. Alternatively, they can also be injected with corticosteroids to help reduce the inflammation. If left untreated, a cyst can become an abscess – which poses the risk of bursting inside the body and causing blood poisoning.
