I have a lump in my upper back just under the skin for the last 5 years. At the beginning I have consulted with a dermatologist and he suspected it as a dermatofibroma and told me to keep an eye over it. Now after 5 years it seems to be grown minutely with mild itching sometimes with redness. On palpitation it seems to be 6 to 8 mm in size. Today I have consulted with a different dermatologist and he assured me that it is a sebaceous cyst and the only option is to remove it if I want (optional) and referred me to surgeon. Now I am very confused and really want to remove it surgically. I have interacted with a group of people's who told that they also told by their dermatologist as a cyst but came as dfsp. And the highly recommended me mohs surgery. Please help me with a doctor who has experience in dfsp surgery and mohs. Please help me.

Hello Lybrate-user, Before going for a surgery make sure that after surgery will it grow back or not. As most of the time it does. It is better to take homoeopathic treatment. It can cure it without surgery.
