Thanks to you both.. It finally popped today but there's still a little in it trying to get the rest out.. I think it was all the hot water i kept putting on it.. I thought it would never go away but I'm glade it is starting to. Yeah I went to the doctors he told me to just do warm compression and take the pills he prescribed me

Hi Isha01,

I do not think that warm cloth would help BUT maybe an old fashion hot water bag will work.  Not the heating pad though this MUST be the old fashion hot water bag where we boil the water and pour it inside the hot water bag. Last week I had a big boil on my tail bone. I was embarrassed to go to my doctor.  I used the hot water bottle and it helped.  The boil burst. I am so glad it is over and I hope this will help you too.

Take care

Hi there.  Going to be totally honest here.  That sounds very uncomfortable and is in a sensitive spot.  A spot prone to infection.  I would go ahead and see a doctor for this.  They may need to lance it and you don't want to do that yourself.  they then may give you some antibiotic ointment on it to make sure you don't get an infection.  So, please consult your doctor about this!  Sorry you have it---  NOT fun!!  good luck and let me know how it goes.
