Any home treatments for epidermal cysts?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Epidermal cysts should be treated by excision by a surgeon. Otherwise you will risk recurrence, and worse, infection.

Are there any good home treatments for an oral cyst? I have an oral cyst, and i've had them before. I know they're usually not a big deal. Is there anything i can do at home to make it go away, rather than making a special appointment to see my dentist?
