Epidermal Inclusion Cyst
An epidermal inclusion cyst is a benign cyst occurring under the skin, often resulting from a blocked hair follicle. It is typically filled with keratin and may develop a noticeable bump. Treatment is usually unnecessary unless inflamed or infected. This common condition is non-cancerous and generally harmless.
