Help. Boil/absess on intimate area

[Loopylou6]

It's on the pubic area, it HURTS has not yet popped, but I can't get out and i can't find no antiseptic or sudacreme. What can I use? Mouthwash? Need to pop it and keep it clean

Hot compress.

It's probably a Bartholin's cyst, I've had it before. It was agony. Salt bath helped too.

It's not on the labia area, more the 'landing pad' hot compress will pop it, but what can I use as an antiseptic?

Have a bath with lots of salt. I had one many years ago and this helped it. Then keep clean with salt water. If you have any tea tree oil add a few drops to the bath - not too much as it will sting!

Tea tree oil? Apple cider Vinegar?

Thanks @drum2018 salt water it is then

Is it a trapped hair? Painful

Sorry I see Drum2018 has also recommended tea tree oil. I like it because it heals skin so effectively.

I dunno, but it's purply/black and squishy

Ring the Pimple Popper!!

we need a photo!!

@vikkimoog 😂 you really dont

What’s the “landing pad”?

It's the V shape of your public bone iyswim

How about washing it with hibiscrub?

A poultice of white bread soaked in midly salted hot water applied to the area will draw it out and relieve pain repeat as nedded not too jot mind

Stuck in and don't have anything like that, I will get some tomoz tho

Ask for this to be moved to sporners corner and add a pic obvs

Thanks Nanny :)

I've had one of these recently, used sudocream to keep it clean.

I've had one of these- had to get antibiotics in the end, as it wouldn't pop. Even hurt when my underwear touched it! Was about the size of a marble. Don't mess around with it too much as you may make it worse. The GP told me that mine was too deep under the surface to pop and it never did... it just shrunk and disappeared with antibiotics (took about 3 weeks though!)

Sorry...

We definitely need a video of the popping to judge 🙄 for medical purposes.

I've found some TCP but it's from 2013 I can't use it can i?

I had one of these and needed antibiotics for it to disappear. Was also recommended Epsom Salts bath, but as it was infected then needed 2 courses of antibiotics.

No
