What's your best sporn story?

My favourite thread ever.

My DH had a massive cyst on the back of his neck that had been brewing for years. It finally came to a head in December and went with a pop on Christmas morning. It filled an entire bin bag of puss covered kitchen roll. The initial squeeze actually hit the wall behind me and it carried on giving out until New Years Eve. Best Xmas gift EVER.

I have just realised I missed huge chunk of this thread! I have read and now feel totally satisfied and a bit sick.

Hooty yes I was told the TB boil must not in any case be drained. So I somehow didn't. But that thing was always going to blow, it was HUGE.

When working in a microbiology lab I had a dodgy toe, I lanced it myself with a sterile needle oh the lovely pus, I actually cultured it onto an agar plate it was full of Staphylococcus aureus.

Had a lovely little one this morning on my forehead small read lump, squeezed it and pus shot on the mirror made my morning.

I had one on my breast which when squeezed a hard white ball like a pearl popped out and left a hole!

Well I have had words with OH and he has promised I can look at it on Sunday. I tried telling him that you can now see it sticking out and his hair has kinked where it is but he wont budge........

ouchbloodyouch
I bring bad news, the fanjo spot is bringing forth no more pus
Having left it a few days after the lovely crunchy explosion, I've had a rummage around but it's disappointingly shrunk
I shall probably have to wait years for another one that good

I'm pretty sure being a sporner is genetic as PP said. I get it from my mum who loved nothing better than a spot to squeeze. DD is a mini sporner, she loves picking at spots on my back.

I tell ya, its a real bonding experience.

WOAH. Oh man. That is so good.

Oh! How could I forget this one?

Ex had a refilling hole, it looked like a smallish blackhead on his cheek, but every time I gave it a good squeeze a thin white wiggle would come out, and I could still see something black, deep down inside.

After about a year of me squeezing it every couple of months someone punched him in the pub one night (publican) and a few days later I noticed his cheek had refilled.

I gave it a squeeze, and an enormous fat white wiggle of hardened pus came out, followed by what looked just like the nib of a pencil.

When I investigated it properly it was a tightly curled hair, and was about 2 inches long.

That was a great find.

Oh CatThief you've reminded me of being in bed with a past boyfriend, and noticing some redness inside his ear. On closer inspection it was an ENORMOUS blackhead, but inflamed, so kind of whitish too. With the smallest amount of pressure it popped out whole, a plug, and some pus, and then my fave, blood (to indicate all is clean and well). Ahhhh.

I had an enormous blister on my heel as a teen, I lanced it with a sterilised needle and an arc of water shot across the room and hit my df. It went about 3ft.

Speaking of df, he complained about a lump behind his ear, and when I looked it was a massive blackhead. So big that as I loosened it I had to ask for tweezers and managed to pull the while thing out whole. It was a centimetre long, must have been there years.

Still not as satisfying as my recent Verruca removal though. It's on here somewhere, with pictures.

Ahhhhh Potato, heavenly!

The size of a petit pois, not these.

I get boils quite often. Some of the best ones were after ds1 was born. I had one big one on my eyebrow, I didn't want to poke it because I didn't want to get pus near the baby but one day it had developed a scab about these of a petit pois. I raised my eyebrow and the scab cracked a bit and a green plug was attached to it. I pulled the plug out and a river of pus flowed forth. I have a gap in my eyebrow hair now.

The same month I had a few just under my armpit. I'm a bit tubby so they were not too painful and pressured so I ignored them somehow and eventually they stopped hurting. A couple of weeks later I saw a few scabs there and I picked them. I have never seen so much pus. Probably 3 tablespoons at each squeeze session and I went back several times.

Fond memories.

That is all.

Me and my DM both love sporn. Unfortunately for us, me and my DB were acne-free free growing up so opportunities for squeezing were few and far between

However I now have a fantastic spot/cyst on my fanjo. I left it for a few years until it suddenly got infected and doubled in size- the nurse at the walk-in clinic thought Christmas had come early when she got to drain the bastard. It came back and while I nearly let the doctor at it to get rid of it permanently didn't want anyone with a scalpel, needle and thread near my fanjo just yet... It's more fun to have a hot bath and squeeze all the insides out myself every 6 months

I had about ten veruccas on my foot for two years when I was 14. We tried verucca stuff but nothing worked so we gave up and left them . They kind of scabbed over and I just had what looked like round hard patches of skin with black shadows of dots in the middle.

One day I thought sod it, got some bazuka, squirted it on across the whole foot and left it to dry.

When I peeled it off EVERY ONE of those verucca covers came away, complete with a root and the black verucca at the end. When it was all off I held up the massive verucca skin island and admired the ten pointy verucca roots sticking up and looked at the ten lovely clean holes in my foot.

I've never had one since sadly :(

Fuckery your words of expression are excellent. You got me at the thhwooft

My first proper twat faced knob bf worked daahn pit. And oh my joy when I saw his blackhead covered back. (Best thing about him)
We went on hols a couple of years ago with bil and sil. She had a stunning whitlow-took up most of her nail. Antibiotics not kicking in, but she wanted to swim, so I selflessly volunteered to look after it. Long soak in hot water then lanced it-through the (now soft and soggy) nail. Nothing. So I gave pad of finger a gentle press, not a crack, more a thhwooft, as a bit yellow lump hit the mirror, followed by puthering yellow liquid. Oh happy day.

This should be in classics so we can add to it as time passes

Mine happened on holiday; a nice big hard lump on my labia majora. On closer inspection it was a bit purple, so stabbed it with a sterilised needle from the hotel sewing kits you get, and it erupted like nothing I've ever seen. Due to its' location, it got me in the eyebrow when the bloody pus burst forth. It was truly a perfect spot; in a dodgy place, audible pop, sweet relief, and tons and tons of blood/pus. Never refilled though

Oh I feel all seedy like I should be dribbling and rubbing my thighs. I LOVE spots! DP won't let me near him very often but I am allowed to clean out the ear cheese from his old piercings. He also had a massive cyst on his bum years ago not long after we started going out so he wouldn't let me look at it - then it exploded in hospital in front of the consultant and his gaggle of students. Again, I missed it. He owes me.

I think the love of sporn may be genetic as my Mum gets the same thrill and even has a particular pursed-lip facial expression when popping spots.

My favourite was a teenage blackhead on my nose which had an inch long firm tail attached to it (how did it fit in there??!) . Never had one as good since.

I guess I'm spoiled as I work in the medical profession so I get my fair share of pus filled joys. When I was a junior doctor I got to operate on a pilonidal sinus, which involved cutting it open and breaking up the abscess with my finger . I literally got the length of my entire index finger under the skin to break up the pockets of pus. And I was getting paid for it! :)

I've just lost nearly half an hour to this thread, but how amazing all your stories are!

My best is not mine, but DMIL's.

Apparently she was in the bath one day and noticed what can only suitably be described as a second nipple growing on her left breast. She gave it a supposedly gentle squeeze and said the arc of pus that came flying out was so forceful that it hit the tiles at the opposite side of the bathroom. Nothing has ever come back though after this original popping.

God I love this thread and all of you. My puny little blackheads are nothing in comparison.
