How could she tell?? My GP wants to put a needle in it to burst it!!!! That'w why I contacted my obstetrician who has said I should see a surgeon for an opinion and it may need to be injected..

She said it looked red and 'angry' BUT it wasn't twisted so it may settle on its own.

I haven't heard about the needle thing before - that sounds . My dad has had banding so I thought that was the normal treatment.

I suppose that despite the pain and mortification at least they are treatable I suppose.
