Okay, this is how it stands.
I’ve done the hot compress thing about three times since I last posted, and kept a band-aid over it otherwise. Now it’s greatly reduced in size, but still bright red.
I’m not going to do the needle thing. Sorry, Kelly, but after mulling it over, I’ve decided that some things shouldn’t be attempted by anyone who doesn’t have MD or RN after their name. I’ll just continue what I’ve been doing and let it take its course.
Thank you for the info, alice. quietman: LOL! Rotten Candy: I’m not sure if I have tea tree oil, but if I do, I’ll try that.
