Embarrassing Bodies - Sebaceous Cyst

Back in Belfast Dr Christian spoke to Pat who had a small hole on his forehead that had recently re emerged after several years absence and would become filled with a thick white discharge. Diagnosing a sebaceous cyst Dr Christian puts Pat's mind at rest by informing him that it's perfectly common, nothing to worry about and can be dealt with via a minor surgical procedure which could be done in his GP surgery.

This new series explores the conditions and ailments that leave many of us a little red-faced and aims to de-stigmatise common complaints. Three doctors -- Dawn Harper, Christian Jessen and Pixie McKenna -- will be throwing open the doors of the clinic in a bid to tackle each condition head on, while attempting to take away the sting of shame.
