Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of recurring sebaceous cyst on the jawline which seems to be due to infection of sebaceous cyst as it seems secretory lining is disturbed and it could be due to infected tooth in that region leading to facial pace infection.

Need not to worry. I would suggest you to visit general physician once and get it examined completely and go for its complete excision so that it will not reoccur, Take proper course of antibiotics along with anti-oxidants. If it is due to tooth related cause go for root canal treatment of that tooth. Maintain complete hygiene.

Hope your concern has been solved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry maheshwari
