Cysts can be either hard or soft, depending on their location and the material they contain.
Here's a breakdown:
-
Soft Cysts: Cysts located closer to the skin's surface often feel like soft, fluid-filled blisters. These are often the result of blocked oil glands or hair follicles.
-
Hard Cysts: Cysts located deeper beneath the skin may feel like hard lumps. The consistency of the material inside, as well as the depth, contributes to this harder feel.
Essentially, the texture of a cyst varies based on its contents and how deep it is situated under the skin.
