[|AI|]  Hello dear, Thank you for your contact to Chat Doctor. I read and understand your concern. I am Chat Doctor answering your concern. Yes, steroid injection and saline flush can help reduce the cyst. This type of injection therapy requires repeat injections several times. But the definitive treatment for the cyst is the surgical excision. If the site of the cyst is not on the face than you can go for surgery with any of the general surgeon. If the site is on the face then you can go with surgery to the surgeon but suturing should be done with the plastic surgeon. This will reduce the chance of scar mark. This will look good cosmetically. Please do not do any home remedy this will increase the chance of infection. I advise you should maintain good local hygiene as to avoid infection. I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/ Chat Doctor. Thank you, ChatDoctorInfectious diseases specialist, ChatDoctor.
