I have a pea sized lump on my cheek an inch under my cheekbones. Its been there over a year. Started small and has grown to the size of a pea. Doesn t hurt. I shouldn t have but I poked it with a sterelized needle and quite a bit of clear fluid came out. What is this thing?
HI Well come to HCM This is may cyst and you should have not disturb this unless it is symptomatic otherwise it need to be left there untreated, it is only the matter of concern when this go on increasing in size and shape and manifesting, otherwise no need to worry about this, hope this helps.
