I've got a bunch of sebaceous cysts on my scrotum, like six of them. I'm thinking of getting them surgically removed. What kind of risks should I be aware of? Also, any idea on how much it might cost to get this done in Bangalore? If you know of any good doctors or hospitals I should consider, I'd really appreciate the suggestions!

I'm so sorry to hear you're dealing with multiple sebaceous cysts on your scrotum. Getting them removed via surgery is a great step, but it's essential to be aware of the potential risks involved.
Risks associated with sebaceous cyst removal surgery:
- Infection
- Scarring
- Temporary numbness or tenderness
- Recurrence of the cyst
As for the surgery cost in Bangalore, it can range from 20,000 to 40,000, with an average cost of 35,000. The cost may vary depending on factors such as the size and number of cysts, the location of the cysts, the method of removal, and the hospital or clinic you choose.

View allI'm dealing with this constant pinching and sensation under my right armpit that even extends to my right chest area. It's been going on for months and no matter what I do, it just doesn't seem to go away. I'm really worried and can't figure out what's causing it. Any advice on what this might be and what steps I should take?
probably due to nerve irritation, muscle strain, or lymph node involvement. Since the issue has been ongoing for months, its essential to consult a doctor for a detailed evaluation. Early diagnosis can rule out serious causes like tumors or systemic conditions and help provide effective treatment

I've been dealing with some really weird lip issues. It started with my lips swelling from top to bottom, and after a few days, they went back down. But then, they started darkening and eventually turned completely black. Now they're super dry and chapped and sometimes burn depending on what I put on them. I'm really not sure what's going on or what to do about it. Can you help me figure this out?
This sounds like a condition called post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation of the lips. To help with the darkening, dryness, and chapping of your lips, I recommend using a lip balm containing hydrocortisone and sunscreen during the day. You can also apply a thin layer of hydroquinone cream at night to help lighten the dark pigmentation. Additionally, make sure to stay hydrated and avoid licking your lips, as saliva can further dry them out. If the symptoms persist or worsen, consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

I've noticed that I've developed quite a few til on my face, and they seem to be increasing. I'm also seeing them appear on my neck and hands. What can I do to stop them from spreading and how do I get rid of them?
Excessive oil production on your face is often due to overactive sebaceous glands. While you cant completely stop oil production (and you shouldnt, as some oil is necessary for healthy skin), you can manage it effectively with the following steps: Cleanse properly, hydrate your skin, control shine during the day by carrying tissues to absorb the excess oil without disturbing makeup, adjust your diet, avoid heavy makeup, exfoliate weekly , use specialised treatments, manage stress.
