Once a sebaceous cyst forms, it will not disappear on its own. It will slowly grow larger, may cause pain, and could rupture, leading to secondary infections. Once diagnosed, it is recommended to have a minor surgery at a dermatology department of a formal hospital to completely remove it. This condition can recur, so after treatment, it is important to regulate diet and lifestyle. Avoid spicy, stimulating, greasy, or sweet foods. Try to avoid staying up late, anxiety, and stress. Do not use public baths or swimming pools. Regularly exercise, bathe more often, avoid keeping small pets, and ensure that clothing, bedsheets, and duvet covers are sun-dried and disinfected.
