Scarface

If you would like to know why I will probably end up with a rather large scar on my forehead (unlikely to be lightning-shaped), please read on.

WARNING: It's fairly disgusting, so if you have no desire to know gory details, stop now. Don't worry, I'm not including any pictures, but that may be small consolation.

abscesses are yucky like that. (the colour/s and composition of the gunk inside can tell a lot about the infection and so on.)

i'm bemused that a gp would be so delicate as to pass the task of lancing on to another. but not surprised. medical students can be little flowers. [you *can't* be in medical microbiology, else you are no longer in medical micro.]

{the gp(s) ought to have done more than lance a little hole, but then they *are* gps. mine would have lanced it using a syringe.}the whole cavity needs to be cleaned out properly. sterilised, and checked to ensure that any possible source of infection is removed. *sadface ( ... )
