DHs ingrowing hair

[Grabmygran]

It’s on his back and is a big solid lump (around 50p size- a bit bigger). There is a little pinprick opening in the middle and he’s asking me to squeeze it as it’s causing him pain. When I do a little firm white pus comes out then some runny yellowy brown pus follows- then some more white, then more yellow.

Do I keep squeezing or just insist he visits the doctor?

I would stop picking at it, it could become infected, w nurse or doctor looking at it would be a safer option

Hot compress and squeeze with tissue covered fingers. If it's a hair it'll soon become apparent. You lucky thing!!

I do agree this thread is fairly flat without a photo.

What happened OP?

Magnesium sulphate paste and hot compress

@Grabmygran

He won’t let me record it! Spoilsport!

I can’t actually see the hair- should I still poke around with a needle?
