Q: Sebacious Cysts

I am 40 now, and I had three stinky cysts removed eleven years ago in college. Two years ago had 15 removed - all from my back (upper mostly).
I bathe daily with anti-biotic soap, though I don't use a loofa pad.
Why in the world are these things back already, and is there a proven treatment? I seem to have more now than 2 yrs ago....

My dermotoligist is no good - he said "just get them removed every coupla years"
that is not good advice, imho. Crying or Very sad

please, only serious replies to thar at mindspring dot com.

Thanks,
