What Are Calicles? Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment Options

Calicles are small, membranous sacs that form in the skin and subcutaneous tissues of some animals, including humans. They are filled with a clear fluid and can be found in various parts of the body, such as the face, neck, and arms.

Calicles are thought to be caused by the accumulation of lipids (fats) and other substances in the skin, which can lead to the formation of small cysts or sacs. They are usually harmless and do not cause any symptoms unless they become inflamed or infected.

In some cases, calicles may be a sign of an underlying medical condition, such as a lipid disorder or a genetic condition that affects the skin. However, in most cases, calicles are simply a normal variation in the appearance of the skin and do not require treatment.
