Polonidal Cysts?

I have my first polonidal cyst...I am curious what kind of surgeon I should see a colon and rectal or a dermatologist.

Polonidal Cysts?
Normally a "General surgeon" takes care of this depending on the size. Usually you need to see your family dr first who will refer you there. Go soon, these can get pretty big and painful quickly if not taken care of.
Reply:If you have the option of seeing a colo-rectal surgeon that would be the first choice as they treat more of these than any other doctor, second choice would be a general surgeon.
Reply:a general practitioner should be fine - it is a simple procedure to drain and treat it most of the time.
