AIBU to go to A&E

Had terrible trouble with my labia minora for months, first a little ulcer which cleared up, then one inner labia (labius??) swelled up approx 50% and had a small hard lump in it, was given antibiotic cream and then Flucloxicillin by the GP, nothing worked, then a few days ago the small hard lump turned in to a large pea-sized tender lump! GP said it’s a cyst with fluid in it. Been doing hot compress since, it’s now burst itself in the night and is painful and bleeding 😓 and to make matters worse it’s only half drained, so the lump is still palpable and it might fill back up completely with pus! Going to ring GP at 8am for an emergency appointment but if they fob me off with ‘watch and wait’ etc what should I do? I’ve been in pain and discomfort for months and no one will help me properly 😓

TIA for any help.

[quote QueenPaw]@ControvertialYeti blatantly not true. I had plenty of time to post on here while actually waiting in a&e to be seen because doing that and playing candy crush were the only things distracting me from the pain of needing spinal surgery

@queenpaw
I’m just saying she clearly didn’t need to go to the A&E. whatever treatment the GP has given seems to have sorted it. It clearly wasn’t an emergency or an accident if you can get the correct treatment in the GP and it has worked.
Not quite the same if you break your leg or you need spinal surgery.
