Hi,I am Dr. Andrew Rynne (Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am 68 years old and i have sebaceous cyst that looks like white pearl. Do i need medical attention ?
I had a sebaceous cyst removed from my left jaw a year ago it has now returned and looks like a small white pearl . I am away from home in another country for three months and wonder if I should see about it now or wait I am a 68 year old woman in good health and not on any medications at all
It must be some granulations which have healed improperly following the previous excision of the cyst. Better to get this examined at the earliest rather than delaying.
Regards
Dr. Naveen Kumar
