Cysts are defined as those lesions which are pus filled. These can be very painful and also excoriate the skin condition of an individual.
Cysts occur when there is over-production in the oil glands, which becomes clogged and ultimately prone to bacteria. Also, severe bouts of stress may give rise to cysts. Cysts are generally treated with oral antibiotics or injectable medications as topical medicines are not so effective in dealing with it.
Squeezing or picking a cyst can severely aggravate the situation.
