Ugh this is well grim, please bear with me.

I've had a pilar cyst on the back of my head for a few years now, and it minded its own business until last week when I caught it with my hairbrush. What started off as maybe a 1in lump swelled up to maybe 2.5in and hurt like fuck. Went to the doctors on Wednesday and got anti-b's and got told they could remove it but the Doctor that does that only works on Wednesdays and I'd missed her for that week.

I woke up in the night in fucking awful pain. It almost throbs and is so taut, if that makes sense. I can't lie on it or in any way that it almost touches the pillow. It's hot and the glands in the back of my head and neck are up and hurt :(

Just before I started writing this, something popped and now the back of my head it soaked with what I guess is pus The lump is still there though.

So my questions given that I won't get a doctors appointment today:

  1. Do I just keep it clean, keep taking the tablets and get an appointment asap? Could be days though, knowing my surgery.

  2. It fucking hurts and is spewing something out now - would a walk-in centre be able to do anything given that I'm already on antibiotics?

Thanks in advance, your gross friend,

Rose

ps. I know the rules. It's really hard to get a pic of the back of your own head, and it's covered by my hair. If anything further develops I'll ask DH to take a pic tonight.

I'm reading Stephen King's 'the dark half' at the moment and it's about an evil twin that becomes a tumour in a guy's head. 😐

You have a murderous twin in your head. Grin

Today is the day! Grin

RoseCuntedGlasses · 08/03/2017 13:13

Aww you lot are going to be disappointed. It didn't come out in one go - there was lots of scarring or something so it wasn't the lovely shiny ball that I imagined.

So the pictures are gross, but I do have some. But they are rank and really need to come with a warning. It just looks like a hairy bit of gristle.

And I have three lovely stitches

Wow.

How did they get it out? Incision and squeezing or lots of digging?

What did they reckon it was, sebecaous cyst?

Pestilentialone · 08/03/2017 13:23

Deffo murderous twin.

You just have to feel better now.

RoseCuntedGlasses · 08/03/2017 13:23

Really wasn't that big, the pile of crap wasn't more than an inch, I guess.

Omg that is totally gross !

PossumInAPearTree · 08/03/2017 13:24

Head wound looks sore.

RoseCuntedGlasses · 08/03/2017 13:26

You lot have made me laugh!

I feel a bit shaky not - was very strange hearing the snipping and the feeling the pulling. He'd done three that morning before me! It was an incision and kinda snippy scraping. Very weird feeling!
