WIBU to.... (pus related)

[saggyhairyarse]

I had a BCG vax a week ago and now have a red weal with a pus filled centre.

The question is: to squeeze or not to squeeze?

Leave it unless you want a big scar

how do you plan to resist temptation?

(i have yet to manage)

Leave it.

I squeeze everything but bcg is there for a reason.

What is bcg vax?

Leave it- I did mine and now the scar is mahusive :(

maddening BCG vaccination, I think. I'm almost scared to Google anything I see on MN. My search history is er, eclectic, to say the least.

DO NOT SQUEEZE.

And if it looks big and nssty see a doc. It might need antibiotics.

Mine got ignored by my negligent and busy mother.

The night it popped in the bath is etched on my memory. rivers of pus. Gallons of it. I suspect that was the beginning if my fondness for pus and boils and stuff.

Anyway. I didn't squeeze or pick but my scar is huge and unsightly. So don't.

Although a photo would be good.

Where do we get our fascination with all things pus filled?

don't squeeze. My dcs all ahd BCG vax as babies. All went pussy (ds's was HUGE) I was overseas, (vax had been done in UK) my mum phoned NHS direct for me
it is normal, do not cover, do not squeeze
