I have been having problems with a sebaceous cyst about the size of a grape in my groin area. Its been coming and going for 3 months now. I went the the ER and the Dr. lanced it. She said only a little pus came out and that the cyst was too deep for her. I was hoping these antibiotics would knock out the infection and the cyst would go away but she recommended having it removed at the same time as my labiaplasty. Is there any chance this cyst will go away on its own with the antibiotics?

Removal of a conjunctival cyst is something that will be covered by almost any health insurance. The cost will very much be determined by where the procedure is done. Ideally it will be removed under an operating microscope in a hospital or surgery center operating room.
