What Is The Treatment For Sebaceous Cyst In The Head?

I have had a sebaceous cyst on my head for quite some time. It has gotten bigger this past year, and about a week ago started leaking when I am always at it. The fluid is clear with traces of very little blood,and the cyst area is sore...is this normal?

Hi,Good Evening.Thanks for the query to HCM.I studied it in depth and I understood your health concerns.
-Treatment-for Sebaceous Cyst of the head-
1- In my opinion -the clear fluid appears to be due to the cellulitic fluid due to the handling of it by you and hence little of fluid -indicating that the infection is not advanced and could be controlled with proper treatment with ER Surgeon.
2-As rightly said by you the cyst is not painful and red ,but is sore due to excessive handling by you with less of fluid discharge.
3-So I would advise you to Consult a Surgeon and who would treat it accordingly as told above and with proper antibiotics and anti-inflammatory and proper drainage by surgical means.
4-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...!!
