Bramble has a nasty cyst on his torso. My vet called it a cyst, but not sure if it is a sebaceous cyst. It has ruptured. She prescribed a combination of cleaning with hydrogen peroxide, then rubbing in neosporin. She also gave me a prescription for cephalexin (500 ml)--4 every 24 hours, and a Bynadryl 25 ml twice daily). This was a month ago. Results, not too good.
She did recommend surgery, but with a 14 year old lab, I am reluctant.
I have a follow up appt on Thursday. She also mentioned "fly season" is around the corner, and maggots could be trouble.
Decision time for me, and let me know what you learn, and will do the same.
Thanks, John
