Suggest Treatment For Sebaceous Cyst Appearing On The Neck
I have a sebaceous cyst on my neck. My gp referred me to a consultant at the hospital who said it could be removed but due to the current climate i would have to pay privately. Although I am not too worried about the cyst itself ie don't think it could become malignant, it has now
become very foul smelling. I am very aware of this and as I can smell it myself would imagine other people can too. Is this not a good enough reason to have it removed on the nhs? I am a52 year old woman.
Hi, dear I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You have sebaceous cyst. It is benign and generally not converted in to malignancy. So nothing to worry about that. Treatment is surgical excision. Indication for surgery are pain, foul smell discharge or cosmetic. If you want to go for surgery then there is no harm in that. Consult your doctor and go for excision. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
