What Causes A Sebaceous Cyst On The Scalp?

Have a sebaceous cyst on the top of my head that has been getting worse. A walk-in doctor provided a scalpel in case it got worse before my specialist appointment in a months time. Well it was really bad yesterday so I tried popping with the scalpel. I think this was a mistake because I now have firm swelling of my forehead. I am worried this might be a collection of blood or something dangerous.
