iget it come up every 3-4 weeks but its never burst till now,i was in doctors on monday and he hoked and poked at it and gave antibiotics to clear it up,and wrote a second letter to hospital aking them to operate and take out the stitch he believs is holding up healing,well all monday night it was killing me,tuesday i went to dks and wnet shopping bunged full of painkillers,tuesday night i was up all night i said to my oh,the frigging thing is getting bigger,well wednesday it burst,the horriblest thing i ever seen so i called doctors and went straight in cause hed never saw it at its worse and i want something done its not fair in this day and age they cant fix a abcess,so he looked at it took a swab,and phoned the hospital and told them it was a emergency it needed sorted only to be told the doctor that done the origanal op is on holiday and as he frigged it he should fix it,il kill him when i get me hands on him my gp said it the worse infection he ever saw in a abcess,it was all black yuk:smt078 and very painfull,and the infection was spreading and i shud go in,well im stubborn and said il wait for my appointment i dont want MRSA aswell so im still sore got to go back on monday to get it checked,and on top of all that itook a allergic reaction to the abs,and have to take medication to stop reaction aswell as abs,as they hope to get infection under controll.

Sounds horrible and painful, I had one on my backside last year. I used a tea tree oil lotion and found that worked very very well. I use the one by Thursday Plantation as this has a higher level of Tea Tree Oil than most other brands.
Tea Tree Oil has been found to kill most bacteria even at very low % so worth giving it a go but warning, it stings!

Oh you poor thing it sounds so painful. Lets hope they can get you sorted as soon as possible. You can't be expected to put up with it for as long as you have. Maybe now the doctor has seen it at its worse they will do something for you. Hope you get well soon.

Oh bless your heart. Its sounds terribly painful. Hope you get it sorted soon and start to feel better. xx
