My son got small cyst under skin of his head above his left eye , do i need to do scan to find out what it is , i have concerns about it , ?

Dermoid cyst: Usually it is a dermoid cyst, which is not harmful. It can enlarge over time. You can get a scan for a likely diagnosis or can have it cut out or just watch it. Most of my patients chose to have it removed to find out for sure what it is.
