When Should You Get a Growing Cyst Removed?
5 months ago
The cyst on my back has slowly increased in size over several months. At what point should I consider surgical removal? Can small cysts be left alone if they aren’t causing pain or discomfort?

Surgical removal of a sebaceous cyst is generally considered if the cyst is growing, causing pain or discomfort, becomes infected, or is cosmetically concerning. Small, painless, and asymptomatic cysts can often be safely monitored without surgery.
The decision depends on factors like size, location, symptoms, and personal preference.
Regular monitoring and consultation with a doctor if any changes occur help ensure that cysts are managed appropriately and complications are avoided.
