When I had my horse fly bite which my daughter said cast a shadow
I burst it myself. I never went to the GP.
I used one of OHs sterile needles and went for it. I then dressed it myself.
I really don't think it made a lot of difference....between doing it myself and seeing the doctor.
As long as you cover it you would be fine. After all I only made a tiny hole and the fluid seeped out. I had to do it a few times covering after each time.
If it had become hot and angry looking I would have seen someone.
Two years on I still have the scar.....It's on my arm.
It's not that I'm brave....I burned my neck....cauliflower cheese incident.....and I was at the nurse the next day and every other day afterwards for a week.
