First out i thought it was a huge zit on my leg ?!


Question: First out i thought it was a huge zit on my leg .?
then i waited 3 weeks later and i decided to pop this sucker and see what it really was. it looked like an unerupted volcano and had the little crater on the top. i just popped this thing with full force and the 'stuff' started to come out and blood was everywhere. it even leaked down to my leg! a hard thing that looked like tiny mineral came last and i squashed it and it squashed down like how lima beans would. i covered this small wound with a bandage so it would not get infect because when the blood dried out, it was like a little hole in my leg.
4 months later the hole has covered up and turned out to look like a giant zit but bigger!i don't know how to get rid of this, since i don't even know what it is. it does hurt when i pinch it hard too! how do i get rd of this thing! is it a cyst or what.?please help me!i want this thing off my leg!Any other questions concerning the thing just feel free to ask!

Health Question & Answer


Answers:
It could be a sebaceous cyst, they usually have a capsule around them and that needs removal by a doc. It will keep coming back and or get infected. In the meantime, put warm compresses on it. See a dermatologist or regular doc to see if that's actually what it is. You may need antibiotics if it's pus. It is important to see a doc because all kind of skin things, especially serious ones, start out like what you've described. a return after 4 months and larger size warrants a doc visit, no more home treatment.Health Question & Answer

looks like a zit i get them too because i play foot ball and the leg pads catch dirt and sweat and grind it into your legs. but yours looked infected of sorts i would defiantly get it cleaned and make sure the discoloration of it leaves if not go to a pharmacy and ask them about it or go to a clinic.

You'd better get a doctor. I know you don't want to, but clearly popping it isn't going to work if it cam back. If you let it get worse by ignoring it or trying to treat it at home, you could suffer serious consequences. Never let anything go untreated that you can't diagnose yourself.

And if it's a cyst, it'll keep coming back, the doc has to surgically remove it.Health Question & Answer
