There is a small lump on a man's chest that hurts when he presses it. What should I do?

In life, there are always some special situations due to some reasons. Many male friends have found a small lump on their chest and it is very painful to press it. Many male friends who have this situation do not know what caused this situation and how to treat it. So, what is the reason for a male chest lump to be very painful when pressed?

First, there is a small lump on the chest of a man that hurts when pressed. What's going on? There is a hard lump on the chest. If it hurts when pressed, it is considered to be a cyst, which is caused by the blockage of the sebaceous gland duct, resulting in the obstruction of sebaceous gland excretion and congestion. Guidance: It is a lump of flesh formed by the accumulation of fat under the skin. It is a benign disease that grows slowly and generally has no effect on the body. You can ignore it. If there is secondary infection, there may be pain. Control the inflammation first, and then perform surgery. Generally, exfoliation surgery is used for treatment. Use a blade to cut the tumor, peel off the sebaceous glands and fat-like substances inside, and then sew it up. Sebaceous cysts, commonly known as "pimples", are mainly caused by the blockage of the sebaceous gland excretion ducts, and the sebaceous gland cystic epithelium is expanded by the gradually increasing contents to form a retention cyst. It is characterized by a slowly growing benign lesion. There is white bean curd-like secretion in the cyst. It can occur at any age, but is more common in young people, and is prone to occur on the head, face, neck, chest and back. Sebaceous cysts protrude from the skin surface and generally have no spontaneous symptoms. If secondary infection occurs, there may be pain and suppuration.

Second, sebaceous cysts protrude from the surface of the skin, and are more likely to occur in areas rich in sebaceous glands, such as the scalp, face, chest and back, and most grow slowly. When there is no infection, patients generally have no conscious symptoms. The swelling is spherical, single or multiple, and varies in size, from a few millimeters to nearly 10 centimeters. It is of medium hardness, elastic, protruding from the skin surface, adhered to the skin, not easy to push, with a smooth surface and no fluctuation. There is a needle-sized umbilical foramen-like opening in the center, which is blue-black and shaped like a needle-head acne. Squeezing can produce tofu dregs or noodle mud-like contents, which are sebum and broken sebaceous gland cells, often with a rancid smell. Sebaceous cyst cancer is extremely rare, but it is easy to cause secondary infection. If it is complicated by infection, it may cause redness, swelling, heat, pain and inflammatory reaction. The cyst can rupture under external force and temporarily disappear, but it will form scars and is easy to recur.

There is a small lump on a man's chest that hurts when pressed. What's going on? The most common radical cure is surgical excision under local anesthesia. Sebaceous cysts are small swellings on the body surface. The operation is simple and can be performed in an outpatient clinic. They should be removed as completely as possible without leaving any cyst wall, otherwise they are prone to recurrence. Since sebaceous cysts often occur on the face, cosmetic effects should be considered during surgical excision. Small incisions can be used to remove sebaceous cysts on the face and neck, and the skin is sutured without tension to avoid the growth of incision scars to achieve a beautiful effect. Antibiotics should be used appropriately if there is infection before surgery and to control inflammation after surgery. Sebaceous cysts that have been infected should have their lesions surgically removed after the infection is controlled. For those whose local infection cannot be controlled or have been combined with abscesses, incision and drainage should be performed. CO2 laser and ion minimally invasive methods are considered to be good methods for treating cysts without concurrent infection. They are particularly suitable for the treatment of facial sebaceous cysts due to their simple operation, small incision, little bleeding, no need for sutures, almost no scars, and low recurrence rate.
