Hi,I am Dr. Andrew Rynne (Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have been getting a cyst? every now and then in th pubic area.. Some tend to hurt depending on location. It usually ends up bursting itself and blood usuallly comes out of it. Not a lot. Do I need to worry about these? Why am I getting these now at my age, 77, and not married. What to do?

HI
Thanks for posting your query .
I feel these are not just simple cyst but are boils ( infection of root of hair ). Repeat boils can happen if good hygiene is not maintained or if body immunity is less or if you are malnourished .
I advise you take bath everyday , Use clean undergarments and eat nutritious food like fruits and vegetables . Also get tested for Diabetes as it increases the chances of having recurrent boils .
Also you need a course of antibiotics , so kindly consult your doctor and ask for prescription.
Any clarifications feel free to ask , Happy to answer .
