Man Has Huge 'Horn-like' Cyst Cut Out Of His Head - And What Is Hidden Beneath Is Truly Gruesome

#1

If you're squeamish, then you better look away now.

Because this video has captured the moment a dermatologist cuts a huge 'horn-like' cyst cut out of a man's head.

After making the incision, a giant lump of pus is pulled out of the patient's scalp, so big in fact, that the patient required stitches to sew the hole back together.

Dr Sandra Lee said "This particular cyst was interesting because it started to overgrow the space there on his scalp and started to protrude upward creating a noticeable bump.

"When I 'popped' it out, it was growing in a horn-like shape, as if it was pushing his way upwards."

She explained that this type of cyst is known as a pilar cyst or a trichilemmal cyst - which appears on a person's scalp in 90% of cases.

These kind of growths are benign and are usually only removed for cosmetic reasons.

Dr Lee is a dermatologist at the Skin Physicians & Surgeons practice in Upland, California, and often posts footage of gory spot-draining procedures for her fans to watch.

And she admits she finds the pimple popping procedures very fascinating.

Sandra said: "I pop these things, and yeah they kind of make me feel good, they're satisfying, but it's not like I seek them out."

This particular video was uploaded to Dr Lee's YouTube channel on December 15 and already has more than 568,000 views.
