WTF is this lump

Had this on my back for about 2 years. It used to smell cheesy to the touch (🤢)

This past few days it’s gone really sore but no redness

Am I dying?! Can’t get in the GP

Probably a cyst. Visit a dermatologist

I would agree with likely cyst but probably not infected or badly infected if not red. Worth getting checked by GP though.

Sebaceous cyst most likely. See the GP and they may take a biopsy to rule out anything nasty.

Can you squeeze the cheesy stuff out? I'd be obsessed! But use antiseptic and a warm flannel? I'm sure it just a cyst/blocked pore/zit.

Cheesy inside will be a sebaceous cyst, most likely. They can get infected. Don’t panic at all.
