Sebaceous cyst - before surgery
This started life as a pea size lump under my skin. and remained unchanged for over 2 years. A couple of weeks ago it started to grow and in the 4 days I had to wait before seeing my GP it had over trebled on size.
Sebaceous cyst - after surgery
The cyst and core were removed in hospital by a surgeon under general anesthetic. Unfortunately they wouldn't allow my boyfriend in to film the procedure :( The hole was then packed and dressed as opposed to be stitched, so that it can heal from the inside out and prevent further infection or occurrence. The packing and dressing needs to be changed daily by a nurse as due to it's positioning, I am unable to do it myself. This was taken the day after the surgery was performed when the nurse first changed my dressings. I'm told that it will take around 3-4 weeks to heal and that the hole will close and I will be left with a small scar. Guess my days as a back model are over! LOL
Sebaceous cyst - hole left in back by surgical removal of cyst and core
Its 2.5cm long, 7mm wide and 7mm deep. As far as I know, no you can't see my spine!
Sebaceous cyst - isn't she lovely
My skin isn't really this wrinkled or loose! It's just where the bandages have been stuck on and then removed! After the initial shock of seeing the hole, I decided to have some fun!
Sebaceous cyst - a new friend for my friend
I'm told this one looks like Caitlyn Jenner! :)

You can't offend me with cysts, I'm addicted to Dr. Pimple Popper videos.

But have you watched the "mango worm puppy" videos? Let's see how strong your constitution really is!

My friend watches these when he gets stressed out. I want to cause there's something so satisfying about it but it's too icky for me.

What I would have wanted: seeing that thing come out.

But it won't stop me either
ChrisPTacos
I sure hope that got sewed up
AgamemnonsMemes
When its on the back like that it is much more likely to 'pop' open so its almost not worth it, especially that large a hole.
LupusBorealis
If you sew it up, it does the same thing all over again.
whatdoyouknowaboutmytaco
I've had this happen twice - first time packed and healed, 2nd time sewed and crazy infection happened. Idiot doctor wouldn't listen to me.
icookfoodandfightfire
nahhh the only part that actually has any broken skin is that little bit around the lip of it. Its basically an enlarged pore so the whole >
icookfoodandfightfire
inside is just regular skin
CopperWench
Depending on the type of cyst of course. I get lymphatic ones deep under my skin and I have to wait like a chump for them the do their thing
Incidentally
It's basically a horribly enlarged pore so sewing it up would probably be a fairly bad idea.
GuacamoleMoleMolester
But don't you lose skin in the surgical process?
CopperWench
A cyst is encapsulated matter, so they need it to heal inside out. If you seal it up, you're just creating a new pocket.
CopperWench
You'll grow new skin, just like on a cut or scrape. Some large abscesses or huge cysts need drains places in them temporarily too.
sfloresw
Unfortunately not! :( It has to heal from the inside out so I just have to have it packed and dressed daily for the next 3-4 weeks.
PolarHailStorm
I'm guessing it was done with you awake? Any anaesthesia? I bet the feeling of relief from having it removed was bliss.
anon311919
I had a pildonial cyst in Jan, my roommate had to pack it for me. I don't know your beliefs but depending on what meds they give u, weed 1/
anon311919
Works better. I was on.. I think norcos. Not 100% sure. First time, screamed and cried (like a bitch) with weed? Under 1/2 the pain.
sfloresw
Now I feel short changed! I'm not on anything but paracetamol and ibuprofen :(
anon311919
Daamn. If you smoke, do it. It was by far better than anything i took. My roomate/savior wouldn't pack it w/out weed after figuring that out
TheToiletPaperThatRippedWhileYouWereWiping
I got mine removed and they just gave me stitches
GuacamoleMoleMolester
'Cause you're probably a snitch.

@OP you should check out drpimplepopper on youtube, she does procedures removing similar cysts!

You know that's so disgusting but I'm trying to lose some weight. I think I'll watch that at dinner time.

I have a tiny one on my chest. Scared me to get it removed

Could be worse. The thing I got removed was in my butthole, so that wasn't a pleasant recovery

I had the same thing. They are not fun. They hurt so bad.
sfloresw
did yours leave much of a scar?
TheMythicalJackalope
Not really no. Just about a 1/16 of an inch divot like someone stuck a needle in me a bit
sfloresw
That's great news! Thanks ????
Idontknowmyusername
packed? with cream or medicine?
sfloresw
some sort of ribbon like bandage from what I'm told. hurts like hell when they take it out and push the new stuff in :(
Idontknowmyusername
Hey, how are you? hope you are doing better and completely healed
