Sebaceous Cyst All Over My Body!

Posted by jennyone @jennyone, Jul 7, 2017

I have small bumps all over my body, arms, between my legs, under arm, neck scalp everywhere! I was diagnosed when I was in my 20's as these bumps are sebaceous cyst, I'm 62 now and they are still here. Previously I did have some on my chest removed with laser which left terrible scarring. I guess my question is do anyone else have this condition, and what can be done about them?

Google "The vein hook successfully used for eradication of steatocystoma multiplex" for an excellent description of a quick surgical technique that I think works v well in the good hands of an experienced surgeon.

Well it was my main motivation to stop lurking and reading when I realised I had an "answer" that might help others. The youtube searches were fascinating because there are all sorts of videos showing how these cysts can be excised...
