Healing nicely after cyst removal on my back 3 weeks ago

I had a cyst on my back for many years. In 2016 it got infected and ruptured. My dermatologist drained it and put me on an antibiotic. A couple of years later it developed cellulitis, and it had to be drained again, as well as being put on another antibiotic. The dermatologist said the cyst may come back again, and it did. He said if it did come back that I would need to be seen by a plastic surgeon, so he could cut deeper to remove it. He referred me to Dr. Michael Vincent on Shady Grove Rd in Rockville, MD. Dr. Vincent's front desk staff were very pleasant, his nurse Kimberly was very nice and informative, and Dr. Vincent was very friendly. Everything went smoothly and I was at ease during the procedure. Dr. Vincent did a great job. Since I am a nurse/massage therapist with the Washington Institute of Natural Medicine, experienced with treating post surgical patients, I did lymphatic drainage on myself after the procedure, above and below the incision, to help reduce the swelling. The swelling went down quickly. I just had my follow-up on 8/2/22 and had my stitches removed. I was bandaged and was told to leave the bandage on 3 to 5 days. I just removed the bandage and the incision looks good. I just have some irritation from the bandage tape, of which I always get, due to having sensitive skin. Everything is healing nicely. I will have another follow-up in 4 months to see how the healing is progressing. I highly recommend Dr. Vincent and his staff. It was a very good experience all around.
