Gigantor

Had gigantor for a week and a day now, could barely walk, today it's finally burst and has gone down to about half its size but won't stop leaking, what can I do to get rid of the gunk faster? I've been wearing two dressings on top of each other with iodine inside and it's still seeping through all the dressings on to my knickers about 15 mins after I change the dressing Envy

MOIST · 21/05/2017 13:20

Good lord that's a beaut!

Pollydonia · 21/05/2017 16:19

Any update op ?

Mag sulph... 😵

UnbornMortificado · 21/05/2017 16:27

Mag sulphate got rid of the monster cyst/abscess on my arse (DH the spoil sport wouldn't take a photo) it took 2 lots of antibiotics to clear.

It was just a spot compared to yours, my god it must be painful!

mcdog · 21/05/2017 16:56

I don't understand what body part this is???? I've turned the photo every which way and still can't work it out!

Therewere5inthebed · 21/05/2017 17:04

mcdog I think it's the top of the bikini line..

ComeBackWillyWillpower · 21/05/2017 17:16

Yeah top of bikini line, that line going across under my hand is my c section scar. Nothing much to report yet, been weeping for 2 days solid through all dressings. Should I try bread poultice again tonight or would it hurt because it's now open and raw/fleshy? Can't get msg sulphate today as nothing is open near me

Ohhhhh thats a beaut that is. Ohh you lucky lady. I'd keep trying to draw it out, hot poultice the bugger. I was told that alternating a hot poultice with a cold poultice gets things out quicker.

ComeBackWillyWillpower · 21/05/2017 17:47

Or the best pic but here's what it looks like at the moment

GuntyMcGee · 21/05/2017 17:51

Oh OP! That's bloody gorgeous!

Just sit and wait a bit longer. It'll be worth it when it finally comes to a big, slimy, oozy head.

cailyaclara · 21/05/2017 17:54

Oooh, that looks so sore:(

IggyAce · 21/05/2017 19:05

Looks like it won't be long, hope it isn't too painful.

ComeBackWillyWillpower · 21/05/2017 19:16

I never thought I'd be sat here with my legs wide open and warm soggy bread mashed in to my fanjo Hmm thank god the kids are in bed! 😂 My poor husband though, what a sight.
Feeling really really sick all of a sudden Envy, hope it passes cos I've got a take away on the way!

I don't envy you the soreness but I do envy when you get to squeeze it all out!

picklemepopcorn · 21/05/2017 19:29

I'm not sure about the bread, it's hardly sterile, is it?

ComeBackWillyWillpower · 21/05/2017 19:35

It's the only thing that actually burst it out if everything I tried though. I don't understand the reason for it, could understand if it was moldy bread what with penicillin. I've had it on for about 45 mins so far and all I can feel is it tickling Confused I hope to god it works!

OP posts:
UnbornMortificado · 21/05/2017 19:39

How long have you been on the antibiotics for? If no improvement I'd request different ones, mine kept growing as the first lot didn't work and I left it too long and ended up quite poorly.

IIRC it took some heavy duty ones to shift it.

Yeah, looks like you'll have to give the squeezing a rest for today, it's had enough, the core is being shy and gone back down below.

I don't like multiple heads, the energy blast gets dispersed.
