Any Treatment To Remove Solid Lump On Chin Without Surgery?

Hi I have a small solid lump on my chin. When squeezed thick white pus comes out and it smells bad. No matter how hard I squeeze the lump remains. I believe it is a cyst. Is this possible to treat topically or does it have to be removed surgically? Thank you

Hello, welcome to healthcare magic forum,
Good to read your description of cyst, exactly the same thing books writes about the sebaceous cyst, any way the treatment for is only surgery on other option as the cyst wall has to be removed, other wise recurrence.
