What Are Boils, Cysts & Styes?

Boils, cysts, and styes are skin conditions often caused by infections or blocked glands:

  • Boils: Painful, pus-filled bumps that develop when hair follicles or sweat glands become infected.
  • Cysts: Non-infectious, fluid-filled lumps that can form beneath the skin or in sebaceous glands.
  • Styes: Swollen, red bumps on the eyelid caused by blocked oil glands.

These conditions affect individuals of all ages and are commonly seen in areas prone to friction, such as the face, neck, and thighs. If left untreated, they may worsen, causing pain, swelling, and secondary infections.

Signs & Symptoms of Boils, Cysts & Styes

Understanding the signs of these conditions can help in seeking timely treatment:

  • Boil: Red, swollen lump that becomes tender and fills with pus.
  • Cyst: Smooth, round bump under the skin, often painless but can become inflamed.
  • Stye: Red, painful swelling on the eyelid, often accompanied by watering or irritation.
