Is It Concerning If A Pimple Starts Itching And Releases Smelly Pus?
Hello, Thanks for the query, You might have developed sebaceous cyst. It is a collection of dead material under the skin. When you press this material comes out as black debris. Dont worry its not a dangerous condition. Treatment is mainly surgical. It can be removed with the wall of the cyst, through a small incision. Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis. Let me know if you have any other doubt. you can ask a direct question to me on this forum, following the below link. http://www.healthcaremagic.com/doctors/dr-rahul-kumar/64818 Wishing you good health, Thank you
