Suggest Treatment For Yellow Liquid Leaking From Sebaceous Cyst

I have a sebaceous cyst that broke open, after everything came out it healed but still has a wee opening that leaks clear, sometimes light yellow liquid. I have had this happen before onlt the wound closed and healed. I don't have any pain and do keep putting Polysporin on it. How can I get it to stop ? Thank You

Hi,Good Evening.Thanks for the query to HCM.I studied it in depth and I understood your health concerns.
-Treatment -for chronic leaking infected-sebaceous cyst with abscess-
1- I would advise you to let the infection subside and cool down first.
2-So I would treat it with proper antibiotics with Metronidazole and NSAIDs tbs.
3-I would Excise the sebaceous Cyst and would scrape the walls-to remove infection under antibiotic cover -with "PRIMARY SUTURING OF THE EXCISED AREA OF THE INFECTED SEBACEOUS CYST",the results are good if proper scraping of the cyst wall is done under antibiotic cover in a planned way.
4-So I would advise you to urgtly stop the laborious care from your side and Consult a Surgeon who would treat it accordingly as told above -if requested and planned by prior discussion with Surgeon.
3-Dont get scared and uneasy,but be cautious and act fast.
Hope this would help you a lot to relieve you.
Wish you fast recovery-and healthy life.
Wellcome to HCM with more queries till you are satisfied.
Have a Good Day...!!
