Abscess

Gillian

So I apologize in advance if this is totally gross. So I was taking a bubble bath and had a hard time sitting in the hard tub. I felt for what was painful and felt this hard cyst like thing on the inside of one of my butt cheeks. I freaked and called my husband (also a doctor) and he came to look. Turns out I have an abscess and I need to go to the hospital to have it drained. This is one of the things that pregnancy can cause :( has anyone else had this??? It’s so painful and I’m terrified at the idea of having this thing drained!!!
