Golf Ball Sized Lump on Thigh. PICS!!

[OhShitImMeredithGrey]

My first ever sporn post! Yay!

This is on my husband's upper inner thigh. It appeared two days ago and he's been using mag sulphate for 24 hours so the pics aren't from the very start (boo!)

This is currently what it looks like. I believe it's a grower and not a shower.

Believe me tis a thing of magnificent hope!

Anyone know what I can expect from it? It really is an internal beast!

I'm so pleased he consented to me adding pics. He's a keeper

Aw, he is a keeper OP. I felt similar about my DP when a massive lump of ear wax fell out of his ear as we were driving along a bumpy road (we’d been putting drops in preparation for a good syringe/flush) and he held onto it for 5 mins until we were stopped in traffic so I could marvel at it’s beauty. When we drove off and I said he could throw it, he said, quite seriously - “are you sure? It does have a whole other side you could examine” 😍

Good luck with the popping! Could be a good candidate for the hot bottle method?

I also read about Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) recently, it seems I be a reasonably common and under diagnosed condition which can lead to multiple boils/abscesses/purulent discharging sinus tracts etc. Worth being aware of.

loving this thread and shamelessly place marking!

That really should be seen by a doctor.

KickAssAngel It looks painful. Can he actually walk?

Oh my god, I actually misread that as can he actually wa*k. Too early for me. So sorry to lower the tone.

Waaa

Oh happy days what a joyous thread to wake up to!
I’ll settle down with popcorn awaiting furth r news. Yes he’s a keeper

Serendipity - I like his thinking about examining the whole other side !!!

Thats a big un!

Seen by a doctor? Good grief it's a glorified spot.

Hot flannel multiple times a day for as long as possible. Big dollop of Savlon over night and that will pop in the morning.

"Seen by a doctor? Good grief it's a glorified spot."

Recurrent boils or abscesses can be a symptom of diabetes

back at you!

I update this morning with sad sad news.

The fucker burst during the night. It passed peacefully and quietly.

It leaves many sad loving people behind and it leaves a gap in our hearts which will never be filled.

RIP Bertie Boil. You will be missed

On a more serious note, my husband sends his sincere apologies and says that this is the most amount of women he's ever disappointed

We'll keep checking it and keep it clean. He says it feels better except for the exposed part.

He is amazed at his fan base here and now has a new appreciation for just how weird the internet can be

Your husband sounds funny!

But yes I had a whopper on my arse and gp sent me for a blood test for diabetes

How disappointing! I have sharpened my scalpel and got the rubber sheeting out.

oh, the sheets must have been a mess?

Afterschool you sound hopeful?

I'm disappointed. At the very least you could have set up a night time web cam on the fucker.

I like your husband's style OP.

By the way my DN had ingrown hairs and he had to have an operation to remove them! It can be tricksy.

RIP Bertie.

Truly gutted.
There is a spot shaped hole in my heart.
Rip and all that shizzle

Dame - I needed a GA and plastic surgery for one similar

OP - yes to GP, he needs a blood test for diabetes and also mention hidradenitis supprativa
