popping life

[Mando Pandango]

I've had a pretty decent-sized cyst on my forehead for the last year or so. I had it removed once but they didn't get it all and it came back. A couple days ago for the first time it developed a whitehead. I figured I'd still leave it alone for as long as I could, but honestly it felt like it could burst at any moment. So just now I took matters into my own hands and popped that shit. I good amount of brownish oozy goodness came out for a while, but then came the blood. There was so much goddamn blood. But it wasn't fully drained yet, so I just kept squeezing, and more of the cyst came out, but oh my god, the blood. It looked like I had been shot or something.

So anyway I managed to get about half of it out, and I have a dermatologist's appointment in early May and he'll probably take out the rest.

I'm pooping right now and it's pretty good.

But I've never had a cyst, but I've had nasty ingrown hair/zits that when I finally popped them felt like all was right in the world.

i popped 5 whiteheads tonight
my acne calmed down earlier in the month when i changed my cleanser

i don't know why but my jawline keeps getting small cysts
id get a small cyst on my cheekbones from time to time
i think its because i need to rub my face on a pillow to get comfy enough to sleep

popping is so relieving if it happens
there's always a 12% failure rate where mine don't pop because they're too deep in my flesh

im really lucky i don't get scarring
but i did get hyperpigmatation spots that'll take forever to heal but they're also on my jawline so they're not that noticeable i think

Most cysts are built up layers of dead skin that get trapped in a sac underneath the epidermis. I'm pretty sure mine got infected based on what came out when I popped it. It hurt a little but since I had to kind of tear it open with a needle to get it to drain properly, but it hurt about as much as any shot you'd get. The rest was totally painless. There was just a lot of blood.

I've got before pics from a couple days ago and I could take an after, but I don't have any footage from during because my girlfriend didn't want to film it for me.

yeah my one buddy got one on his lower back some time ago, i think from working out on the bench, and from the way he described it is sounds exactly like yours. just kind of interesting, in a gruesome sort of way, of the things that come out of our bodies now and then.

Two years ago, I had this thing develop behind my right ear. Really painful and weird. Ballooned up to the point where it hurt whenever I turned my head. Obviously, couldn't sleep on that side of my head. Couldn't understand how or why it existed.

And it was warm. Like having a fever, you know? Was sure it was a tumor and sort of resigned myself to losing my hair and dying.

This was all around the Christmas/New Years season.

I was at a friend's place for the holidays and there were a few dozen people there. Holiday cheer and everything.
I must have moved my head in a violent direction at some point, but something popped behind that ear without me knowing. And then, there was a pint of blood gushing from my ear, B-movie style and I was oblivious to the whole thing.

wtf did someone tell you or did they just let you bleed

This is a great thread

Ingrown pubes are the worst I've dealt with. Am always convinced it's herpes or something. Very satisfying once you fish out the hair through the pool of blood

wtf i've never had ingrown hair on the pube area man? haha

recently i've gotten a full beard neck outline that goes around my adams apple, lol, and i had two ingrown hair there due to shaving and the hair being very soft and new and not properly coming out of the fucking pore like a good lad.

but they go away after a week or two.

i shave against the fucking grain with the force and vigor of a bull and always mutiple times and with hot water and towels and all sorts of creams and gels to get the closes smoothest fucking shave ever and i never have ingrown hairs or cuts or problems with my face. (thank god)

i don't know how people don't shave against the grain and at different angels. you are giving yourself a half assed fuzzy shave.

I've never completely shaved down there, I just keep it tidy, so I've never had to deal with ingrown hairs. I haven't dealt with them on my face ever either though, but that's probably just luck.

they sound awful tho
