Hi.
As per your case history you are having a sebaceous cyst.
My treatment advice is –
1. Don’t squeeze the lesion as it may worsen the condition.
2. Apply a mild antibiotic cream like fusiderm cream twice daily on it.
3. Take a NSAID like ibuprofen for 5-7 days.
4. Only curative treatment is excision under local anesthesia done by a dermato-surgeon.
Thanks.
