Hmm, i dont shave, so i dont think they are ingrownIngrown toenail hairs. They look, feel, and act like pimples in every way, so at first i just assumed that i just had a common pimple, just on an unusual part of my body. Do you think its normal to have boils/cysts in that area of the body? is it anything serious? or is it just a common thing that anyone could come across sooner or later?
Thanks.
I am a female who is not sexually active (for many years) I currently have a large cyst low in my pubic area that must be ready to explode any time. I only wish it would. It is very hot and tender to the touch. Also painful to walk. Sometimes I need to go to the bathroom and cry. Yes, it hurts that bad. I'm too embarassed to go to the doctor. About 2 weeks ago I had the first one which was about the same size, maybe a little smaller. I am freaking out. What can I do to get some releif?
On a smaller scale, I have had 3 to break out on my face.
Is there something I'm missing in my diet that is causing this?
My vision has been worsening over th past 6 months too.
Hi, I am an "older" lady,but not sexually active for about 4 yrs. I also have been getting these cysts there. I have seen a Dr because a couple of them got really big & I could not stand the pain waiting for them to break. I have had these for aprox 2 yrs off & on. sometimes 5 at a time. OUCH !!
Recently I was ill with something that required 2 different antibiotics,overlapping. After a ten (10) day ,double dose session with them I am very pleased to say my cyst have now been gone ( knock on wood) for over 2 weeks. So what ever kind of bacteria they are caused from ,antibiotics help. Really. You really should see a Dr. ,it may just be a fungi infection. Try to stay dry,& clean there. My Dr says overweight people are more prone to them. LOL I am overweight.
Hugs & Better Health to all.

Google the word "hidradenitis". My sister and I have this and it is a disease that that is not treatable. Hurts like H E L L!!!! They actually tunnel and come back. They start off as coming to a head and being able to lance them. But eventually they do not come to a head and they have to be surgically removed. My sister had this done and each time (she has had over 3 surgeries in the past 2 years) and has been out of work 6 weeks each. It is a disease that doesn't get a lot of attention and that is why there is no cure. Sounds like some of you have it. Seriously - Google it and check out the stories and pictures... Good luck!
