    if its decreasing in size it will probably go away by itself in time give it a few more weeks and if it dosnt go away see your doctor

      Do you know what it could be? I am not sure if it has decreased at all in the last month in size. It feels hard but its kinda squishy. Doesn't really seem like a pimple but it kind of looks like one. Nothing comes out of it. It really is the length of time I have had this that is making me concerned. It has been lots of months. I was thinking possibly something like a lymphocele but I thought those did not last this long.

      best thing if its not shrinking in size after so long would be to see your doctor

      And is there any reason I should be concerned? Does this look like it could be anything dangerous?

      i dont think its anything dangerous but sometimes cysts dont go away they have to be surgically removed
