Suggest Treatment For Multiple Cysts On My Body

I have cysts in multiple areas on my body. I have a large on on my right buttocks (I ve had almost 7 years), one on my left forearm (had for 15 years), one on my left thigh (had for 6 years), and another in my pubic hair (had for 2 years). I am wondering what type of doctor I should see. I have an aunt that has both forearms covered, I don t want to end up like that. What can I do to get rid of them and/or what type of doctor should I see for them? L

Hello,

I can understand your concern for the multiple cysts on your body.

After reading your query it appears that you have either sebaceous cysts or lipoma or fibromas.

All of these are quite simple conditions and are very much treatable. In general these are excised easily with local anesthesia on each area.

You can meet a surgeon or a dermatologist for the same where the cysts can be excised.

DO not try to do nay self therapy or pinching the areas as can lead to inflammation and secondary infection of the area.

All the best
