I have an open cyst and draining constantly, but hanging. I just want someone to cut it off, my dr is an idiot. Will the er do this,im sick of it,I have had it over 10 years but now is open ..
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The cyst needs to be removed surgically otherwise the secretion will keep collecting and oozing. Since it is going on for 10 years, the ER may not be the right place. You need to take an appointment with a surgeon or a dermatologist for thorough evaluation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
