Typically, sebaceous cysts are painless and do not cause itching sensations. However, if a sebaceous cyst grows or enlarges, it can become painful, especially when compressed, rubbed, or during sleep.

If this occurs, it is advisable to visit a dermatology department at a reputable hospital for a minor surgery to completely remove the cystic sac and its cheesy content. After recovery, maintaining good dietary and lifestyle habits is crucial. Avoid spicy and irritating foods, refrain from staying up late, avoid alcohol and sweet foods, exercise regularly, bathe frequently, and if possible, avoid keeping small animals at home. Additionally, ensure that clothes, bed sheets, and quilt covers are often sun-dried and disinfected.
