Depending on the size and severity of the cyst, the treatment of retroauricular cysts should be based on regular checkups, medication or surgery under the guidance of the doctor.
1. Regular checkups: for smaller cysts that do not cause clinical discomfort, no special treatment can be done, avoid scratching the cyst, and regular checkups are sufficient.
2. Medication: For cysts caused by acute inflammation or cysts with infection, oral antibiotics such as clindamycin and penicillin are needed to control inflammation and relieve discomfort before the next step of treatment.
3. Surgery: For huge cysts with obvious clinical symptoms or cysts with good inflammation control, the cysts can be completely removed by surgery.
Therefore, after the appearance of behind-the-ear cysts, you need to consult a professional doctor to choose a suitable treatment plan for yourself.
