Question:
Giant golf ball sized mass on tailbone, 1/2 cup puss came out?
My boyfriends mom had a pain on her coccyx, and thought it was a bruise, but when it persisted, she threw herself up onto the counter and checked it out in a mirror and she saw a whitehead, she squeezed the whitehead and a little white stuff came out...then she noticed a golf ball sized mass at the coccyx right by the whitehead and figured it was a swelling...but decided to squeeze it in case it was related, and a half cup of white puss came pouring out of it.
I was hoping to find answers to help her. She is taking antibiotics right now but is freaked out because its so close to her spine.
Any ideas as to what it is??
Answers:
It could be a cyst. I had one behind my ear and it drained and drained. Once it healed, it never came back.
