This is the toe-curling moment a man's enormous cyst is squeezed - leaving a huge hole in his skin.

A punch biopsy tool is used to remove the circle of skin covering the cyst, before the vile contents are squeezed out by Dr Solomon Brickman.

The video of the procedure, carried out by the dermatologist based in Houston, Texas, has been watched on YouTube more than 750,000 times.

Toe-curling: The footage shows a hole being punched in the skin above the cyst before the pus is squeezed out

The stomach-churning footage shows a large amount of pus being squeezed from the hole, before it is stitched up.

A woman watching the cyst removal says: 'Wow. I've known that was inside of it - I knew it was.

'You're going to be so glad this is out. It does smell like death a little bit.'

The man undergoing the procedure asks how many days he will get off work, but he is told he can go back in just 20 minutes.

The man said the cyst excision did not hurt.
