I've had one of these- had to get antibiotics in the end

Me too - have one atm! Hurts like a mother fucker and have to keep it covered with a dressing atm as even my clothes touching it is agony.

Feel your pain forra. Well the twat has popped, luckily I've found some savlon, and gauze ( after turning the house upside down, no wonder it popped ) so I'm off to squeeze it perform minor surgery and get it covered, before my KFC arrives.

Look I'm sympathetic. Really I am but you do realise this thing will heal quicker when we see it ?

Get your camera out and treat it to some flash light therapy for a start.

My money’s on an ingrown hair

Magnesium sulphate can help but I actually came on to recommend sporners corner board!

Loopylou6 · 31/01/2020 18:46

I am NOT taking a picture of my pubes 😂
I'll indulge you tho, it's oozing lovely yellow puss Grin

@FoamingAtTheUterus is right. Sight therapy. We need to see it. We are qualified. I hope your KFC wasn't ruined 😂

Get antibiotics to clear any lingering infection ,even if you think it has emptied .
Sounds sore

Loopylou6 · 31/01/2020 21:40

Well, my mayo on my tower burger didn't look amazing if I'm honest...
It's still hurting A LOT.
Pjgirl, if no improvement by Monday, I'll go doc's

You can’t even treat us to a pus picture? Disappointed.

BecauseReasons · 31/01/2020 21:43

Stick a plaster over it for now- you don't want the pus to get anywhere and it'll lessen the rubbing pain. Obviously, trim the surrounding pubes first.

forrandomposts · 31/01/2020 22:01

How did you get it to pop OP?

Loopylou6 · 31/01/2020 22:06

Ovenglove I didn't want to repulse you with a boil nestled in pubes.
Because, yup I have done.
Forra, no idea, it just started leaking, but I had had a rigorous time climbing up on work tops looking for antiseptic, so probably under strain lol.

It wouldn’t repulse, it would delight Grin

Loopylou6 · 31/01/2020 22:26

So disappointed at the lack of photo Sad

OvenGlovesWillTearUsApart · 01/02/2020 01:38

I don’t think you understand your audience. We’re paying good money for this.

PawPawNoodle · 01/02/2020 01:46

Jealous!! I have what I think might be a carbuncle (cluster of boils) on my shoulder and I would do ANYTHING to pop it right now.

GrumpyHoonMain · 01/02/2020 01:50

Use a hot compress / flannel. Throw away or boil wash any underwear / tights / anything that touches that area directly.

OvenGlovesWillTearUsApart · 01/02/2020 02:33

PolPotNoodle

Let us help you. Simply furnish us with a picture of this fabled carbuncle and we’ll get started.

PawPawNoodle · 01/02/2020 02:38

@OvenGlovesWillTearUsApart I'll get Mr Noodle to take a picture tomorrow, it's very cleverly emerged right where I cant see it or get to it. It may or may not have sentience.

OvenGlovesWillTearUsApart · 01/02/2020 03:06

PolPotNoodle

Wooo exciting. Also please let us know if it gets possessed by (surgical) spirits. Birdie Friend (another thread) reckons we’re all going to die soon. I would value Carbuncle’s opinion on this.

Luckystar777 · 01/02/2020 03:54

I want to see it too! I had a bumpy red itchy thing down there before christmas and the dr said it was just a hair follicle but yours sounds WAY more interesting! Grin

toofarbelowzero · 01/02/2020 04:18

It's a follicle bollicle! Grin

BabbleBee · 01/02/2020 08:50

Follicle bollicle

Just choked on my porridge Grin
