What are Cysts?

A cutaneous cyst gets semi-fluid material in it and is like a lesion forming a cavity under the skin. Though cysts are harmless, it penetrates deeply into the skin, appearing as sac-like growths. Their formation begins from the lining of a blocked hair follicle. Cysts also have many different types targeting different areas of the body.

It’s not known when they occur or why certain people seem to have them while others don’t. They can become inflamed, infectious, and the cyst’s contents can break into the underlying tissue. They can be red and uncomfortable and, if they are infected, can cause severe irritation.

The Steps of the Procedure

Incision and drainage.

  • Step #01

    Via an incision and drainage procedure, the health care provider can numb the area with local anesthetics. The doctor will make a minor incision using a scalpel or needle in the abscess. The pus will then be drained out of the abscess, and some of the discharge can be removed for analysis. If the abscess has been washed, the surgeon wipes the wound and flushes it with a saline solution.

  • Step #02

    A few additional steps are taken after an aspiration or incision and a drainage process. Next, depending on the severity and extent of the cyst or abscess, the doctor will bandage the wound with a sterile gauze or attach the drain so that the abscess continues to dissolve as it heals.

  • Step #03

    Medicines can be given to help prevent or control infections.
