Random Rants XX: I CAN'T FIND MY FAGS!!!

Not open for further replies.
I posted a rant a while ago (pretty long ago, IIRC) about how weird it was that I woke up one morning to find half of my face covered in pimples, which is extremely unusual for me, as I've always had a perfectly clear skin.

Well, today I took a shower, and while drying up my face with a towel I noticed blood on it. I look in the mirror, and I've got a huuuuge bump on my forehead that looks like a mutated pimple. I have no idea what it could possibly be, but it's about the size of a classic beer bottle lid. It hurts like hell if I touch it, and while washing it, a substance similar to the one in pimples came out of it. I'm pretty sure the whole bump is just filled with that, and I have no idea what to do.

Anything I've tried to make it better didn't seem to work. I'm actually very worried, since it is really "of abnormal proportions", so to say. I will probably have to go to a dermatologist, but that's a huge problem given that my insurance obviously doesn't cover that and right now I'm in such financial struggles that I have to carefully plan every day in order to have enough money to even eat properly (which I don't always manage to do, thanks to my situation). Not to mention that I have no idea where I could find something like this in this city, and I'm not even sure where to ask.

Any problem for which I don't envision any kind of solution is bugging the crap outta me. And I don't really see any solution for this, apart from the fact that after all, I have no idea what it is and how bad it is. It's like if had been inserted half of a plastic ball with the diameter of more than 2 cm in my forehead. Funnily enough, it's entirely hidden by my hair, which is why I wouldn't have known it was there if I hadn't felt the pain. That thing is huge!!! It's about the size of a 2-euro coin!
 
Just go to the ER before you die. You live in commie socialist Europe you know. They pay for you to get a doctor to pop your pimples.
 
Universal Health Care does not work that way. :p

Apart from the obvious sarcasm, I don't think you understand. That thing is HUGE, painful and worrying. I'm pretty sure you have no idea just how bad it can get. It's bigger in diameter than almost any open scratch I've had, for example, and it's turning freakin' red. Also, in the meantime, I can barely touch my face without biting my tongue to stop myself from screaming. I will actually have to do something about it.

Calm down, 99% sure that's nothing but an infected pimple that has slipped through unnoticed and got out of hand, so treat it like one.
Desinfect a needle, pop the damn thing and douse with vodka. If it's uncomfortable to reach, get a friend to do this. Problem solved.

Did your face come into contact with any irritants?
 
Dartmouth interview today ...

Princeton interview tomorrow

Are you your school's valedictorian? Also, are you going to public or a private school? I ask because my school's valedictorian applied to and got accepted to Harvard just for the hell of it(couldn't afford it so went elsewhere) but with a lot of work and a great essay, so I'm just wondering what ridiculous grades you have or something, the kid I'm talking about had pretty much a perfect grade through high school.

Our school doesn't rank, so there is no valedictorian. I'm not a bad student, though. :3
 
Snow is coming!! :mad:
 
If you want me to help you don't write in Polish.
