KLAXON - What is this - a spot or something else? Sporny pic included

[WolfAlice]

Sorry for crap pic quality, had to do some careful cropping as its on my inner thigh!

Had this for weeks now, looks like a spot but is quite hard and very sore to touch. Tried squeezing but nothing happening

I like that kit but it looks as though it's missing something very sharp and pointy, which is disappointing.

Mardle I think the sharp pointy thing is on the middle stick with a blue plasticky cover on

Yes! Pointy thing has little plastic cover.

Instructions and description of tools

Additions to kit (if it's going in YouTube)
Small child/dog wandering about.
Nasty chipped and slightly grubby nails.
Several drunk friends who will exclaim "woah duuuude" or "ew ew ewww, that's so gross!" Constantly.
Toilet roll.

A knife or a blade, very sharp and very fine with a pointed tip, that is what is missing. A very sharp, fine blade with a point for piercing and slicing open large boils. An essential. drifts into fantasy of Dr Lulu Lee

It's got one Lulu - the one with the "sharp needle tip" that has a little plastic cover in the picture. It's definitely sharp enough to make a little opening in the side of those hard lumpy things.

Not a scalpel though

Personally, I like the blade to be bigger and have a very sharp point. Some of these boils/cysts/abscesses have a very thick membrane. said with medical confidence having never dealt with one personally ever

I like this kit though- very portable were you called out to deal with the smaller sporn varieties or to carry constantly so you can be 'on the spot' if needed.

I can't wait for my zit kit to arrive - how I've lived happily this long without one I'll never know. I feel it's the missing piece of the jigsaw that is my life.

Had I known that dermatologists get to empty blackheads for a living my career would certainly have taken a different path. I feel professionally unfulfilled as I so very rarely get to see pus, and when I do it's seriously manky and in no way squeezable.

Oh well. I'll have to remain a plucky amateur.

Just checking for an update (sigh)

I'm here! I'm here!

The OP may now get on with it.

Checking in

I'm now worried in case the OP's zit turned out to be a pilonidal sinus and she's having horrid surgery as we speak don't google, okay do but don't say you weren't warned.

Always listen to the PP ....

mardle It was on her leg! It wasn't a pilondal sinus. Could all have been sorted out with a Stanleyknife blade, a big squeeze and a slosh of neat Dettol.

Still nothing, what's happening op!!

My dissection kit arrived! Lovely, lovely, lovely. Of course I now have nothing promising to attack with it.
My mum has already used hers on a few recurring blackheads on my dad's back. She was deeply enthused by the result. Dad is unimpressed and would like me to say "I am a psychotic deviant, and so are all of you"

This from a man who once attacked a wart with nitric acid. High praise indeed.

So pleased you're pleased - the kit is a thing of beauty, isn't it?

My selfish partner hasn't grown anything of interest
I've taken to feeding him shite and hiding his facewash. One lives in hope.

Oh lovely Littlegrey, may you have many years ahead of satisfactory use

(i sometimes find that if you pick a little bit on a daily basis at the very corner of your nail you might just get a little something gooey after a few days)

Disclaimer.....I have never done this, ever
