Biopsy treatment in Hebbal, Bangalore

When you notice a lump on your skin, it is easy to panic when you first notice it. Whether it is melanoma or another form of skin cancer, it may be a source of concern for you. Sebaceous cysts are harmless bumps under the skin that can appear on the ears, scalp, face, torso, back, or groin area. In spite of the fact that they may cause irritation (or look unsightly), these lesions are not cancerous. If you have a sebaceous cyst, here is what you need to know and what you should do. A sebaceous cyst is often described as an epidermoid cyst. True sebaceous cysts are formed when the glands responsible for producing oily matter that helps to lubricate the skin and hair, get infected. The frequency of these cysts is not as high as that of epidermoid cysts, which occur when skin cells accumulate under the skin instead of being shed from its surface.

Epidermoid Cysts: How are They Diagnosed?

Most likely, your doctor will be able to identify a sebaceous cyst based on an examination of your skin. There is, however, a possibility that they may need to perform a biopsy to ensure that it is not a symptom of another condition. Prior to your consultation, the doctor asks that you inform them of any recent skin injuries, the date on which you first noticed the cyst, if you have ever had any other cysts, and if there has ever been a cyst in your family. Most of the time, you will be examined by a physician, and from there, depending on the severity of your condition, you will be referred to a dermatologist for further treatment.
