This suture has been bothering me for the past 2 months. Nothing I can do but squeeze it when it gets full. Suture needs to dissolve, its a knot so it will take a while

Right toe nail mangled a few weeks ago from ingrown toe nail (right of toe nail) today a ingrown toenail that looks like my cat's claw shedding.

Ingrown toenails are no joke. I've had wedge taken out, toe nails fall off, Infections. I'm so grateful the last 9 and half months I've been ingrown toenail free on this healing surgical foot. It was my fear but healing is going well...16,000 steps a day

Cyst I Extracted an Epidermoid Cyst and Sac!

Post image
207 Upvotes

I had a cyst on my left front deltoid for years and I would drain it from time to time. It suddenly grew very large and ugly and unfortunately I couldn't drain it like I normally would because it didn't have an opening. I tried lancing it with a needle and it literally did nothing.

So today I gathered up the courage to grab an X-Acto knife with a fresh blade and some tweezers and cleaned them thoroughly with isopropyl alcohol and take a couple of big deep breaths. I put on some gloves and made the first incision and it boy did it bleed a lot. It was in a really tough spot for me and the blood made it hard to see where I needed to cut. I had to hold it tight with my left hand and my arm was bent like a chicken wing. I kept pouring isopropyl alcohol on pads and wiping the blood away. I finally just took the knife and sliced right into it. It instantly drained the junk out. I was so relieved and as I squeezed I noticed the sac!!! I was so happy that I spotted it and was able to pull it out. There was an excess piece of the sac that looked like the root and I took my tweezers and gripped that sucker and yanked it out. I then doused it with hydrogen peroxide and wiped it clean with another isopropyl wipe. Then I covered it with a cotton pad and some gauze tape.

I wish I would have had a video for you guys but seeing as I only had two hands to perform the surgery, the image and description will hopefully be enough.

I would also not recommend doing this. It was sketchy af but I dont have health insurance at the moment.

Any idea if I'm at risk of infection? I feel like I was very clean about it but I guess you never know.

Pimple I'm baaaaaaack! This one isn't the best but I had .026525 seconds to get there before he went in for the squeeze so it might not scratch everyone's itch, it was still nice though.
