oh god thats all you need, i can empethise with you though as i had one in my groin, it was inside my body though and o.m.g was it painfull, i was in agony and when i went the docs he just gave me pain killers which never really work so i just stayed with it in a flat on my own in pain day and night for a long time, i was going out of my mind had to hold on to my pjama leg and lift my leg up by yanking the pjsto move my leg when i needed the loo, i always remember it was christmas eve2005 and one of my friends came to visit and phoned the ambulance straight away any way when it burst the relive was instant, but the smell was horiffic, i had to have a tap inserted to drain it, its like a plastic tube, and they give me some pads to sit on, sorry for going on lou but this post just brought it all back the hospital went mad cos if it had burst inside i would of been in a lot of trouble.
Hopefully this horrible thing will soon drain and be better for you my lovely friend sending you a masive ((((hug))) just for you. xxxxx

Ouch

I feel for you, I used to get loads on the base of my spine when I was a lot younger and the pain was dreadful, I still get the odd flare up now some 45 years later, but they don't last long before they pop as the skin is now so weak. Mine where related to a fissure.

Next time you take a bath dump a load of salt in it, it really helps with the healing.

Hope it clears up fast. I am surprised they didn't pack it at the hospital, perhaps they don't do that any more.

All the best

I could pass out at the thought of daily packing and unpacking. It was agony on my bum as a kid. But my abscess had been so big and deep last year it had to be double pack and was so bad to be done everyday. I am going hot thinking about it :(
 
Hope your ok Lou-Lou.... I cant even imagine how painful it must be, I am a cry baby over a blind spot on my chin!
Hope you anti-b's kick in and you get better soon xxxx
 
Oh bless you Lovely. Glad you've got anti b's for it and it's going to get better soon. Will keep you IMP's

Thanks everyone for your thoughts on Joe. His arm is broken, right across the radius about 2 inches from his wrist. Poor things in a half slab as it hasn't swelled much yet but has go to back on Monday for a full cast.

The doc gave me a choice

Stay in overnight on I V Anti biotics or
Take oral anti biotics and pain killers home but go back on Wednesday to have it checked.

So i choose home of course I'm sat in the bath as I type and the relief is amazing.

They did a swab, doesn't need to drain it as its already draining.

Just nice to be home. Had a lovely table picnic with hubby and daughter, didnt eat much, but I'm glad to say I don't eat much nowadays anyway!

Nasty!! I feel so sorry for you. I suffer with abscess/boils and they are very painful. having one that big ouch! very painful x
 
Rayne, If you have a medical condition which means you have to take a toilet break at other times your employer would not be able to deny you a break. Get your doctor to state this along with having to drink your water.
Just spoke to my best mate who is senior personnel officer for our local council and she has several people working there who have doctors letters saying the very same thing, and by law they have to adhere to what these doctors recommend.
Give her the letter and go to the toilet when you bloody want, she can do nothing!!!
What a nasty biatch she is.

Sounds exactly the same as yours Mags.

I'm back at the hospital this afternoon. My bloods showed high indicators of infection and inflammation so I hope they will be lower today.

Mine popped after a few days, I was taking hot baths but t has left an ulcerated crater about as big as a 50p. Doesn't seem much better to be honest. Not sleeping good and in pain constantly, can't get comfortable. Cos it's on my pubic bone (as you so politely put it) it's in an awkward place.

Oh well I'Ll see what the Doc says later.
