Carbuncle Removal
A carbuncle is a cluster of boils caused by bacterial infection, most commonly with Staphylococcus aureus or Streptococcus pyogenes. The presence of a carbuncle is a sign that the immune system is active and fighting the infection. The infection is contagious and may spread to other areas of the body, or other people; those living in the same residence may develop carbuncles at the same time. In the early 21st century, infection involving methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has become more common. They are typically filled with purulent exudate (dead neutrophils, phagocytized bacteria, and other cellular components). Fluid may drain freely from the carbuncle, or intervention involving an incision and drainage procedure may be needed. Carbuncles may develop anywhere, but they are most common on the back and the nape of the neck. A carbuncle is palpable and can range in size to be as small as a pea or as large as a golf ball. Surface is red and angry, looking like hot red coal. The surrounding area is indurated. Later, skin on the centre of the carbuncle softens and peripheral satellite vesicles appear, which rupture discharging pus and give rise to cribriform appearance. As the impending infection develops, itching may occur. There may be localized erythema, skin irritation, and the area may be painful when touched. Sometimes more severe symptoms may occur, such as fatigue, fever, chills, and general malaise as the body fights the infection. |

Re: Carbuncle Removal
How in the heck did it get that big? I would think that it would be bothersome and would get it looked at. Yeah, I know, no insurance or no money, but still yikes.

Re: Carbuncle Removal
 Hoo boy, that infection was deeper than I expected. Poor guy could hide drugs in the surgical wound almost.

Re: Carbuncle Removal
How the FUCK that didn’t get reinfected is amazing. Watching that made me nauseous but satisfied when they showed the healing pics! Incredible!

Re: Carbuncle Removal
He got some excellent aftercare for it to look so neat and not become infected. I bet that had been developing for a good few years before it was removed.
