How does a doctor remove sebaceous cyst on scrotum?


Can this be done? What is the procedure? Has anyone every removed one themself?
----------

I watched a video on it and all he does is inject lidocain in the areas and remove it. However They are not dangerous and can usually be ignored. Sometimes the fluid contained within a cyst can be drained by inserting a needle but only if it becomes infected. You'll know it's infected if in first your temp on the skin increase, foul smelling material draining from the lump etc. They most occur in genitalia, breast, abdomen, face and neck Excessive testosterone production may also cause a sebaceous cyst. they arise from swollen hair follicles. So if you feel pain, or the area gets hot to touch, chances are it's infected, otherwise, leave it alone. They are harmless on the whole  (+ info)

What side effects are possible after the removal of a sebaceous cyst?


I had such a cyst removed from my ear this past Friday. I have been experiencing loss of equilibrium and waves of nausea. What else can I expect?
I have to put drops in my ear three times a day, as well as having to take a pill twice a day. I also have a prescription for Tylenol #3. Hope this helps.

Sebaceous cysts may occasionally become infected and form into painful abscesses. It is important when sebaceous cysts are surgically removed that the entire sac is excised to help prevent a recurrence. However, it's important to note that sebaceous cyst recurrence in not unusual.

Sounds to me like you may have an ear infection, as they can interfere with your balance and can cause nausea.
I would suggest going back to your doctor, just for a checkup.
Also, did your doctor put you on any antibiotics following the procedure?  (+ info)

Umm...you don't get rid of sebaceous glands, they're under the skin, not under the skin like acne, but part of the skin. They produce the oil that your skin uses to keep from drying out, and helps maintain the pH that keeps bacteria from growing on your skin.  (+ info)
