Is it normal to experience pain after sebaceous cyst removal?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.

I am glad you chose icliniq for your medical-related queries.

I understand your concern and will try to help you with it.

The underarm is a sensitive body region and can sometimes hurt more than expected significantly if some nerves are injured during the surgery. You can apply Ice to the wound every two hours to reduce the swelling and pain. Ibuprofen has an action lasting four to six hours, so that is expected. Here I assume everything went as expected during the surgery. Still, please upload the doctor's notes and, if possible, a picture of the site without the dressing.
