Suggest Treatment For Cyst In Penis

I have what appears to be a cyst on the skin of my penis. I had it looked at by a dermatologist about 2.5 years ago and he told me to keep an eye on it. It has steadily been increasing in size since, but it s not huge or anything. My question is how urgent is it that this be removed ?

Thanks for asking in Healthcaremagic Forum

In short: If it is not giving problem you may leave it for some time.

Explanation: If it is a cyst(not infected) confirmed by your dermatologist, you may leave it for some time as it is not an emergency. You may undergo treatment for that if it is giving problem to you or if it is visible(ackward).
It is better that you pay a visit to your dermatologist once again now for a second look, As it is difficult to diagnose without seeing the lesion.
Good luck.
