Q: I Hace a Cyst On My Face---- What Can I Do????

Please help. I have never had a cyst on my face. This thing is big and i'm very self-concious with it. I have put very hot water on it, but that hasn't done much. I'm scared that it may erupt when I am in a meeting or something. Should I see a dermatologist????? Embarassed

Try putting cool water on it instead of hot (which can cause it to inflame even more). How long has it been there? I would recommend seeing a dermatologist if it's been there for awhile. Even if it isn't anything to worry about, it will at least make you feel better to get rid of it. If it's only been a few days, it may go away on it's own.
