Sebaceous cyst
I have got a sebaceous cyst (sometimes blood discharge found). Visited doctors.
Gen physician(gave antibiotics), gyne, surgeon(said dont poke it often) & then dermatologist(local application). They suggested to keep the area clean & not to worry.
Now I have long history of panic disorder. I asked for suggession in practo. Where I got lot of useful suggessions. But one homeopathy doc said that surgery of sebaceous cyst leads to can*cer. I am really panicked thereafter. Will it be healed? Am I going to be okay?

That's the wrong statement from the homeopath .Sebaceous cyst with recurring infection is an indication for surgical excision.Consult with a general surgeon in your area,a proper procedure will ensure the cyst likely will not come back

No surgery can lead to cancer.
Cancer was always there, the surgery only unearthed the diagnosis.
If you still have the sebaceous cyst you should get it removed. Apparently it has got infected many times
