sebaceous cyst....too big?

[Frecklesandspecs]

Ok I've had this bloody lump on my back for years. It's currently approx. 3.5 x 2 inches.
In the summer I'm most aware of it as it looks like an extra breast under tops and hate leaving it bare.
When I've asked people before they have said GPs wont usually remove them until they are causing pain.
It's not causing any pain, but how big does it have to get before it will burst or they can remove it?

I'm there!

My sister had a large cyst on her head; as it grew it became really visible and hard to cover with hair.

She paid for a private removal and it was hundreds. She bargained down the price by instructing them not to send the contents off to be checked for cancer, etc, since she is medically qualified and was damn sure it was just a cyst. But still loadsamoney.

I can imagine fifty, I've just had to put my son on private treatment for his severe eczema so it's not the best time if not an emergency, to go private.
