I had a cyst lanced 2 days ago, i have had several done in the past. it now looks black, i have never had another one look this. is it normal?

Necrosis/dry blood?: It usually shouldn't be black unless it is dried up blood which should come off or it could be necrosis or death of the surrounding tissue ..either way follow up with the doctor who did the procedure
