Wow Mapes you're sharpening your silverware on this topic!

He's miserable right now, it is ANGRY. I've told him for a few days now, put hot compresses on it and try to relax. Did he listen? Now, we had a client come in today - he happens to be a Doc, so hubby asked him, so what do you do with something like this? Doc said put warm compresses on it and wait it out.

At lunch we have a little discussion and he said I'm going to put hot compresses on it when we get home.

I'm trying to think about my lunch at the moment, so, my suggestion with the hot compress didn't count? Ack. But right now, he's resting and that sucker really looks painful, and we were doing the hot/warm compresses all evening....I might take a peek at that thing before I go upstairs to bed...just in case.

I had a sebaceous cyst on my face when I was a freshman in college. It looked like a mosquito bite to me. My roommates all insisted that it was a pimple and that I should squeeze it. Squeeze it I did, and it just got bigger. I finally went to a doctor and learned that it was a cyst and that I needed a plastic surgeon since it was on the face. The plastic surgeon said he wouldn't operate until the infection from the squeezing was gone. The good, old fashioned Southern plastic surgeon said, go home, put a hot compress on it twice a day for 15 minutes. Make it as hot as you can stand it. Come back in two weeks. The day before I went back, a little hole opened up, some almost dried crud easily was teased out, and a clean hole was left. After the surgery, I had five sutures on my face. The scar is barely visible. I swear by the hot compress now.

bluie, we must have been typing at the same time. Yes hot compresses, all evening today. So far nada. If this thing was on his face, it would have been gone a long time ago. It's on the back of his neck, and he ignored it for years.

It's the size of a plum ....Yow!

Did you get any boil ease to put on it? It has pain killer and a drawling agent combined so it doesn't hurt so bad and helps it bust all in 1 medicine.

I wish we could have a cyst cam.

He's all watching tv and we're watching the back of his head.

He's all sleeping and we're watching the back of his head.

He's eating breakfast and we're....

Like the Truman show for the pus obsessed?

Also in a pinch we have used a slice of potato, slice it kind of thin and tape it over it. As the potato drys it will pull the moisture out of the area causing the thing to bust. But Boil ease works better and has the pain killer in it.
