Sebaceous Cyst On Face, Thick Fluid When Squeezed But Bump Remains. How To Get Rid Of It ?

Hi. I'm 17 (male). I have a sebaceous cyst for nearly 4 months on my face, probably around 4-5mm in diameter. I can feel the bump on my face, and sometimes the bump is very visible, and when I squeezed it, a thick fluid comes out(in a very small amount), but the bump remains. Is there a way for me to reduce/remove the cyst other than going to a dermatologist? I'm still a student, so it's very hard for me to arrange some sort of appointment. Please help, it's really unsightly at times, as the bump appears darker than my skin colour.
