What Does Small Lump On Neck Which Oozes Smelly White Discharge Indicate?
My husband has a small lump on his neck which when squeezed produces a really smelly white discharge. He visited the doctor over a year ago and he said it was nothing sinister however it has remained on his neck. Just wondered if he should re-visit the doctor. Thanks

Hi.
Thanks for an elucidate history.
Nothing to worry.
This is a small sebaceous cyst.
Please request the Doctor to get this excised, before some complication like an infection occurs.
At this stage it can be excised in toto- after infection this becomes difficult.
