I had what I thought was an ingrown hair on the inside of my thigh for a couple weeks. Over the past few days it’s turned into this fluidy ball which became very painful and today it finally popped a load of blood.
My partner has spent the past hour squeezing everything out and it is STILL NOT DONE. To my despair it very much hurts.
While mainly blood and clear fluid there was a white bead in it which I’m assuming is pus but was v hard. There is definitely more to come out of it but I cannot take another half an hour!
Anyway my dilemma: I am very very overweight (in the process of making lifestyle changes which is currently very slow moving…) and am diabetic, and wounds don’t heal well on me (it took 4 months for a cat scratch which turned into an open wound to heal and has left a hefty scar).
Obviously being fat, my thighs chafe like crazy and let me tell you even walking to the bathroom has been and is agony right now. How am I meant to deal with my thighs rubbing together with this?!
Not sure what I’m asking here but if anyone has any advice on how I can heal this quickly or any tips on getting rid of the pain as quickly as possible that would be v appreciated! I already know I need to stop eating so much chocolate.
