So, I do have a phone consultation tomorrow but unable to get a face to face initially.
I have what I think is a cyst, and probably an infected one.... over the course of a week / two weeks it has got so much worse... the size isnt my issue it's the pain... can anyone offer advice on how to ease this or just general advice, the skin peeling is new.

Its left two round holes probably 2 to 3mm wide on each side of where the cyst was. I was fairly sure I had all the gunk out but discovered at work that wasn't the case luckily my friend assisted with the clean up job. As another poster suggested I will have to get dressings to stop any leakage. I still have the majority of my antibiotics left so will keep an eye on it, theres no pain now so if I suspect anything may be amiss I will do something immediately.
Honestly those who like popping things would have had a dream come true this morning Haha.

OP, you probably launched a thousand wet dreams before 9am today with:

I barely touched that beast and a jet of puss shot out my shoulder at maximum speed. My body has never produced such an enormous quantity of anything before . . .

They're sporn obsessed. If you'd have said "throbbing beast" and "hot, thick jet of puss" I don't think any of them would have got anything done today at all and there would have been an unusual amount of jeans/trousers/skirts/pyjamas with holes in the thigh material by the end of today.

It's not right to tease them though. . . . On that point @Droite - sorry, Mistress! It was nearly 20 years ago and there are no pictures. Only a scar from the 4cm long and 3cm deep hole they had to dig to get everything out after it erupted.

Yes I dropped the ball there a bit with no picture however in my defence I had just got up and puss shot out my shoulder Haha. I put a dressing on but if when I change it the result is as disgusting as it was be before I'll share lol.
