Many people use the term “sebaceous cyst” to describe a small lump beneath the skin, but in reality, many of these bumps are actually epidermoid cysts (also called epidermal inclusion cysts).

In many cases, they don’t require treatment unless they become painful, inflamed, infected, or interfere with daily activities.
