OMG GLAD UR OK!!!! I learned alot from my first abcess too

[CazCorpse]

My abcess got way out of hand and I ended up on antibiotics 8 hours a day for 6 days through an IV. NEVER SQUEEZE AN ABCESS! It will force the infection further down into your tissue and will cause it to spread even more quickly. Please get somewhere to have this looked at as soon as you can. I was told a few more days and I could have died!

[CazCorpse]

Go to doctor or hospital immediately! Have you been exposed to anyone with MRSA? It sounds like an abcess. There are other reasons for abcesses but I had a 5x5 inch abcess on my stomach and turns out, I'd gotten MRSA from my ex. Meth users carry it a lot and my ex was on meth. If it isn't taken care of, the infection can spread to your bloodstream and kill you! It is EXTREMELY important that you get this looked at ASAP!!

Heather you need to go to the doctor I had an abcess it started the same way I squeeze it and got it infected really bad! I spend 4 days at a hospital. Soo Please go to the doctor!! I recently got another one and I went right away they gave me antibiotics and its healing already.

You do not squeeze any pimple on your body at any time!!!! Go to your doctor
