Go to a professional: There are many skin lesions that resemble cysts. Cysts can mimic boils, lipomas (fat tumors), calcium deposits and other lesions. It's best to get it evaluated by a professional. Cysts need to be removed with the content and the casing intact. If you just drain them, they usually return.
