Amanda go to docs hun and let him have a look at it, he will be able to reassure you immediately I'm sure and it will put your mind at rest. It probably was just a boil but because you have messed about with it maybe its a bit infected and will feel sore when you touch it.

Try not to worry hun until you have all the facts, easier said than done I know!

Take care x

You know if you keep picking at it ,it will never get better!!! Is there a nurse at your GPs you could pop in too either that or a lady pharmisist. Most chemists have a private area these days that you can discuss things

Amanda,
Go and let your GP look at it, for sure it will be inflamed as you keep prodding it. You probably need a short course of anit-biotics to clear it up quqickly and permanently.
be kind to yourself
