Suggest Remedy For Sebaceous Cyst On Temple Causing Headaches

i have a large sebaceous cyst on my left temple. its been there since early December. it has been causing headaches that have progressed to migraines. Today the migraines have cause my vision in my left eye to become blurry. I have been to the ER and ENT in the last two weeks. Surgery is scheduled to remove it in April. I just noticed a thick vein throbbing from the ventral aspect of it. Should i go back to the ER? or am i waisting my time?

General Surgeon 's  Response
hi.

a consult with a general surgeon is best if the lesion is bothering you. definitive management of sebaceous cysts is surgical excision. you could schedule it electively and on an out-patient basis.

hope this helps.

good day!!
