A member asked:

Is amoxycillin trihydrate effective for sebaceous cysts?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Sebaceous cyst, if that is what you have, is not an infection and needs surgical removal. Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. For nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/. Wish you good health!
