Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why my skin has been dry, itchy, and has white spots and red dots, which is very uncomfortable. Could you please tell me the cause of sebaceous cysts?Doctor's answer:
The cause of sebaceous gland cysts is due to the blockage of the sebaceous gland's duct by the sebaceous gland itself, preventing it from being excreted smoothly during normal excretion. It gradually accumulates within the sebaceous gland. This condition is more common in areas with rich adipose tissue. If the cyst is large, local surgery can be performed for treatment. If there is local infection, it is recommended to promptly perform incision and drainage for adjustment. For more severe cases, intravenous antibiotics should be administered for treatment.
