I Have A Sebaceous Cyst And When I Squeeze It, Clear And Watery Discharge Appears
I have what appears to be a sebaceous cyst where my earlobe meets my jawbone. I HAD BEEN squeezing it, (not anymore). What struck me as strange was the discharge - clear and watery - not foul smelling, yellow pus. Just clear and watery. Is that normal?

Hello,
It has to be excised, otherwise leads to recurrent infections. Consult a general surgeon and get evaluated. Nothing much to worry as it can be done under local anesthesia.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
