Abstract

The present invention provides a method for a topical treatment of a skin cyst. The method includes: applying a formulation to the skin cyst of a mammal; wherein the formulation includes: a dimethyl sulfoxide extract of mature, dried, powdered Cannabis sativa flower and bud leaves, wherein the mature, dried, powdered Cannabis sativa flower and bud leaves include greater than or equal to about 10 weight percent of tetrahydrocannibolinic acid and have been heated for approximately five minutes at a temperature greater than or equal to about 160° C. to less than about 193° C.

Claims

1. A method for a topical treatment of a skin cyst comprising:

applying a formulation to the skin cyst of a mammal;

wherein the formulation comprises;

a dimethyl sulfoxide extract of mature, dried, powdered Cannabis sativa flower and bud leaves, and

wherein the mature, dried, powdered Cannabis sativa flower and bud leaves comprise greater than or equal to about 10 weight percent of tetrahydrocannibolinic acid and have been heated for approximately five minutes at a temperature greater than or equal to about 160°

C. to less than about 193°

C.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the mammal comprises a human.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the formulation comprises a solution, a spray, a lotion, a gel, a cream, or an ointment.

4. The method of claim 3, wherein the formulation comprises the lotion.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the skin cyst comprises a sebaceous cyst, an epidermoid cyst, or a trichiemma cyst.

6. The method of claim 5, wherein the skin cyst comprises the sebaceous cyst.

7. The method of claim 5, wherein the skin cyst comprises the epidermoid cyst.

8. The method of claim 5, wherein the skin cyst comprises the trichiemma cyst.

9. A method for a topical treatment of a skin cyst comprising:

applying a formulation to the skin cyst of a human;

wherein the formulation comprises;

a dimethyl sulfoxide extract of mature, dried, powdered Cannabis sativa flower and bud leaves, and

wherein the mature, dried, powdered Cannabis sativa flower and bud leaves comprise greater than or equal to about 10 weight percent of tetrahydrocannibolinic acid and have been heated for approximately five minutes at a temperature greater than or equal to about 160°

C. to less than about 193°

C.

10. The method of claim 9, wherein the formulation comprises a solution, a spray, a lotion, a gel, a cream, or an ointment.

11. The method of claim 10, wherein the formulation comprises the lotion.

12. The method of claim 9, wherein the skin cyst comprises a sebaceous cyst, an epidermoid cyst, or a trichiemma cyst.

13. The method of claim 12, wherein the skin cyst comprises the sebaceous cyst.

14. The method of claim 12, wherein the skin cyst comprises the epidermoid cyst.

15. The method of claim 12, wherein the skin cyst comprises the trichiemma cyst.

16. A method for a treatment of a skin cyst comprising:

injecting a formulation into the skin cyst of a mammal;

wherein the formulation comprises;

a dimethyl sulfoxide extract of mature, dried, powdered Cannabis sativa flower and bud leaves,

wherein the mature, dried, powdered Cannabis sativa flower and bud leaves comprise greater than or equal to about 10 weight percent of tetrahydrocannibolinic acid and have been heated for approximately five minutes at a temperature greater than or equal to about 160°

C. to less than about 193°

C.;

allowing the formulation to be inside the skin cyst from about three minutes to about twenty four hours; and

draining a fluid from the skin cyst.

17. The method of claim 16, wherein the skin cyst comprises a sebaceous cyst, an epidermoid cyst, or a trichiemma cyst.

18. The method of claim 17, wherein the method is performed two or more times.

19. The method of claim 17, wherein the injecting is performed with a hypodermic needle.

20. The method of claim 17, wherein the draining the fluid is performed by lancing, aspirating, or expressing the cyst.
