Suggest treatment for sebaceous cyst
Patient: I have a sebaceous cyst on my back.  It got infected and burst about 5 weeks ago. I drained much of it.Saw a dermatologist (while I was on the road for the whole summer) 2-3 weeks ago and he thought it looked like it was healing fine and it would be okay. Just contact him if it swelled or got infected again. Well, it started to get infected again (on my way home). A few days ago I had a first in that it developed some dark spot inside it near the surface that looked as best I could tell like dried blood.My dermatologist (now at home) left her practice without notice, couldn't get in to see another in 2 weeks, but it burst again. Looks like clear oozing has subsided, now just blood.  Any recommendations?  We leave for our family vacation in two days. Should I swim in the ocean or pool? Doctor: Hello.Until you be seen by another dermatologist, would recommend taking an antibiotic by mouth, for example Cloxacillin or Ciprofloxacin.You should avoid contact cyst with water.Please consult your doctor for a prescription.I wish you good health.(If the answer has helped you, please indicate this)
