Cysts on Head for 3 years

2016-09-24 11:49:17
Dear Doctor, I was having 3 cysts on my head for almost 3 years and few months back another cyst came on my upper head. The cysts are not even paining. But when I run through my hair i am kind of feeling uncomfortable. Can you please suggest whether it is a serious problem or anyways for reducing it ?? Thanks in Advance.

Greetings. Have you been examined yet by a dermatologist? These could be sebaceous cysts or other appendageal tumours which could be excised. Depending on the size of the lesion , the cyst may be excised by simple excision methods. kindly see a qualified dermatologist / dermatosurgeon/ surgeon in your city for further evaluation and management. warm regards
