Hi, Please help me because I have a cyst in my underarm. I plucked my hairs in my underarm and then take a bath. Then, I found cyst in my underarm. I have 3 Dermatologist: The First Dermatologist told me that I need to take Cloxacillin in 7 days then I need to undergo IPL which is Intense Pulse Light Laser to remove my hairs and it can make my cyst smaller. The Second Dermatologist told me that I need to have a surgery to remove the cyst in my underarm and then undergo IPL which is Intense Pulse Light Laser to remove hairs in my underarm. The Third Dermatologist told me that I need to take Tetracycline for 7 days and then wash and clean the cyst in my underarm with Tea Tree Soap. What is the right Treatment to do to remove the cyst in my underarm? Thank you and God bless.
Hi! Good morning.I am Dr Shareef answering your query.
If I were your doctor, I would advise you for a course of antibiotic with an anti inflammatory drug, and if it does not work, then would refer you to general surgeon for a physical examination of the cyst, and removal if need be followed by a histo-pathological examination of the cyst. Further management would depend on the report.
I hope this would help you in discussing with your treating doctor for proper management of the condition. Thanks for using health care magic portal for your health query. I wish you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
