Any Medication That Can Help Sebaceous Cyst On Outer Labia To Soften Up And Eventually Rupture?

Hi there. For a few months I have had a hair stuck under my skin of my outer labia. It wasn't bothering me or aything. Recently its gotten hard and has been semi draining throughout the day. From what I have read its a sebaceous cyst. It isnt a huge issue for me. Is there anything you can reccomend for helping it soften up and eventually rupture?

You have to start proper antibiotic for infected cyst.
It will subside within 7 to 10 days.
Apply antibiotic cream like fusidic acid.
If it is recurrent then it should be removed surgically.
Take proper local care.
Avoid tight undergarment,sex till get complete cure.
Consult your gynecologist for further guidance.
