    Default The monster on my back

    I have a monster of a zit on my back. No- it's not a zit. It's one of thoes huge, cystic boil type thingy's. It's on the middle of my back between my shoulder blades, the boil itself isn't that huge, but the redness around is it like 2 inches in diamater. And it freakin hurts! owowow
    Eh. Just felt like complaining. I can't reach it myself to eradicate the problem.

    If I was there, I'd lance it for you. I love popping stuff.
    Drought was over. Where was I? Drinks were on the house.
    For mixers, my love, you'd poured--what?--even the rain.

    Ugh! I feel your pain. I get one of these usually once every couple of months, primarily in the same area. Try a series of warm compresses with a clean cloth? And when it's ready, REALLY ready, lance it with a sterile needle if you can reach with the needle. It's so often in a totally inconvenient spot, though, isn't it? Ergh.

    Try a hot compress soaked in epsom salt. That should draw out the bad stuff and bring it closer to it's own .. popping. Or make it easier for someone else to do it for you.

    Or you can make a paste from the epsom salt and put a warm/hot rag over that, if you reach. I know thoes hurt and they're always in bad places that you can't reach yourself!

    feel better

    A little off topic but this made me remember when I lived with my best friend and her boyfriend. She used to pop the zits on his back. I used to remember watching (until the contents of my stomach started to move towards my throat) and thinking to myself "I have GOT to find me a woman that'll do that. She'd be a keeper." But then again, I never get backne...*knocks on wood*

    man i get one that comes around and is sore. It needs popped. I made my roomate do it once, and it had yellow crap come out! YUK.

    It's back. And i can't pop it, it's on my back. I'm trying wet heat packs and hope it will open and drain. They hurt.

    Don't you have a boyfriend to pop it, Kaylinn?

    Warm compresses are good to draw it up to a head, or have the boy dab mayonnaise on it and cover it with a bandaid before you go to bed. In the morning it'll blow like Mt. St. Helens. Then just have him put some Neosporin on it and it'll heal up soon.

    He came home and attempted to offer assistance, but it wasn't ready yet. I'm gonna try the mayioannse thing and hope it blows by the morning.

    mayo is really good, and I've found oregano oil is REALLY super at drawing out the pus of super deep zits, even if they've JUST shown up.

    Maybe you could just repeatedly jump in the air, and body slam yourself onto a hard floor, and maybe all that pressure will beat it into submission

    I had one of these recently. I went to the drugstore and bought some 'draw out salve'.
    All the pus came out and it went away in about 2 days. I was going to pop it myself but when I did some research online all the sites advised against that method being done at home.
    Squeezing the stuff out can be pretty painful. With the salve you put it over the boil and all the stuff runs out on its own.

    Have fun and stick it to the man at the same time.

    well, I did take a towel and tried to rub it off. To no avail. I tried layign on my stomache and doin crazy yoga to get my hands back there to get ahold of the damn thing. I tried to use tweezers as an extension of my fingers.

    Luckily, my woonderful boyfriend came to my assistance finally.
    It must've been a fun one, cause all through the evening he kept checking on it to see if it needed any more attention.

    But today, it's healing! Yay! Fucker hurt so bad I couldn't sit back against the chair. I felt like the hunch back of notre dame. Crisis is over! I can once again join society in backless shirts.

    Yup. It's always just a matter of time . .

    Another one's lurking.

    Somewhere.
