Versuvious

[cjt110]

I have Mt. V on my chin. It's been there weeks and keeps getting a head inside. Last night I slapped some vapour rub on and gave it a squeeze and some pus came out. Put some more vapour rub on before bed and went to sleep in anticipation but nothing :( I can still feel a lump. My skin I'd a mess so don't really want to pick at it any more. Suggestions welcome.

Jeez why are you putting vapour rub on it?? Poor chin
Stop picking it all together now it is getting scabby.
Experts will be along soon to give proper advice

Lapin I read somewhere it can draw out the bad so thought it was worth a shot and it did work. Sadly, Im a picker :( Trying my hardest not to

TCP is what you need, not Vapour rub that will just irritate it.

What will TCP do Dame?

[DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen]

Stop it getting infected, and dry it out. TCP is amazing for spots.

Get a hot cloth on it a few times over a few minutes the squeeze it gently with your knuckles. And post a picture

I think you need antibiotics!

Vaporub is basically mentholated Vaseline. It will do nothing for your spot!

Ooooh I know that "there's something bloody there" frustration.

Lots of heat and steam

Bought some neutrogena fast spot remover stuff and it's definitely shrunk to a flat pancake!!!
