Cysts

Skin cysts are closed sacs under the skin filled with fluid or keratin, usually harmless but sometimes painful or infected. Dr. Maharania can confirm what it is, treat infection with medicines, and refer you if drainage or removal is needed.

Symptoms & signs

Signs of Cysts can vary from person to person. Common ones include:

  • A round lump under the skin
  • Smooth and movable to touch
  • May have a central dark pore
  • Pain or redness if inflamed

When to see a dermatologist

  • The problem is spreading, worsening, or not improving with home care.
  • It is painful, itchy, bleeding, or affecting your sleep or confidence.
  • Over-the-counter creams have not helped after about two weeks.

Treatment approach

Treatment depends on whether the cyst is quiet, inflamed or infected. Dr. Maharania can confirm the diagnosis and treat infection or inflammation with medicines where appropriate. If drainage or removal is needed, he refers you to the right centre.

Frequently asked questions

Does every cyst need removal?
No. A quiet cyst may only need observation. Pain, redness, discharge or repeated swelling needs examination, and some cysts need referral for drainage or removal.
Can WhatsApp help before I visit?
WhatsApp can help with appointment booking and basic guidance, but most patients are best assessed in person at the clinic.
When is urgent care needed?
Seek care promptly if a cyst becomes very painful, red, hot, rapidly enlarging, starts draining pus, or is associated with fever.
Where can I consult for Cysts?
Dr. Kailash Maharania sees patients at Vaishali Nagar, Jaipur and at Jhunjhunu. WhatsApp is available for appointment booking, timings and directions when you cannot visit immediately.
