Perianal Abscess

Anyone ever had one, I did circa 1978, Ouch, sorted itself out, it wasn't till tonight I discovered that it wasn't a pre-anal abscess.

Re: Perianal Abscess

October 1975 I went to stay in a cottage in Somerset for a romantic week with my partner. He developed an anal abscess which became a fistula and was whisked off to hospital in Exeter.
I spent most of my time trudging miles through the rain to the nearest telephone box to talk to him.

He had to drive home sitting on a rubber ring.

Nasty things they are, they're usually caused by in growing hairs, I think. They also tend to recur if not thoroughly sorted out.

Very painful affliction - long distance cyclists can be prone to them.

All sounds very painful, thankfully not something I have any experience of. I feel for anyone that has though.

Are you sure it's not an annual rather than a perennial?

Re: Perianal Abscess

In for a penny, in for a pound. If we're talking about things 'down below' I developed a Bartholin's cyst, which was extremely painful and quite large.

Fast forward to the funny side.
My GP said to have a hot bath 3 times a day. I was working and rented a flat. You had to shove a shilling in the meter for hot water.
Erm..... bright idea. I bought a washing up bowl and used to fill that just enough to cover the area. Imagine me sitting on the floor in a washing up bowl watching TV

I worked at the Australian Centre and one day (don't know how many days I did the washing-up bowl bit) climbing up the stairs, it burst. All this liquid ran down my legs
I went to the boss (who was a great bloke) and asked if I could please go home for a bath... he hollered with laughter at the state of me and told me to go home

Just trying to picture it. Are you saying you were climbing the stairs with a washing up bowl strapped to your maximus?

What's maximus?

The w/up bowl ritual was in the flat.... the walking upstairs and it popping was at work.

Capiche?

The largest muscle in your body... so I'm told.
