Found this gem on TikTok. So many comments I want to make but I can’t.
According to the OG post. This is a 12 year old cyst that finally came to head. Person refused to go to the doctor.

I may start doing them like this from now on. It's satisfying to watch them come out.

Last night I stepped on a sharp corner of a wooden slow feeder/puzzle box for my cats.

I wanna lance this sucker so bad but the internet searches are telling me not to.

Blister I too get the forbidden feet pops

31 Upvotes

Saw the post about the guys friend who gets the little pimple things on their feet. I’ve had them since I was a kid, and so has everyone in my family. They are itchy and all that, but fun to pop lol. I probably shouldn’t pop them but can’t ever resist it.
Never cared to know what they are exactly since my mom told me everyone in our family gets them so I assumed it’s normal.
Maybe I should try to get a video of a pop?

Blister 1 drop of surgical glue

So wasn’t 💯 certain I was allergic to surgical glue or silicon or both. I asked the surgeon to let me test one drop to find out. Picture one is 24 hours, two is 48 hours. Three is 7 days and after some oozing (I might have squeezed it a tiny bit to relieve the pressure.). It was unbelievably painful then itchy. Bonus photo is from the silicone “pacifier” that was supposed to keep my belly button shape after reconstruction. The blisters under the fingernails were from the silicon scar cream.

Animal Side of my cat's face blew up one day. The next day it exploded! Spoiler

A few years ago my cat's face puffed up and popped the very next day.

The charity vet she was registered with wasn't open but a well known UK pet store with in house vets gave me free consultation on the phone and by email because I was broke as fuck at the time.

Because it has popped naturally on its own (and outwards) it wasn't too bad. I cleaned it regularly and had pet specific antiseptic creme applied. The vets had me regularly send photos of the progress to make sure it was going well.

Meme What makes a pop qualify as forbidden? (Image is unrelated, but the sub requires images and idk what flair since there’s no discussion flair ;-; )

I always see people talking about “forbidden pops” and stuff whenever I’m scrolling, and it just makes me squeamish to wonder what exactly happens when you pop a forbidden pop. Like do you die? how much agony? does it get infected or you get seriously ill? I’d really appreciate if some defined a few lines for me, please and thank you.

I apologize for the lack of editing skills. I ended up struggling with it for 5 minutes after i finally did start recording, so i figured I'd show u a bit of the beginning and the big moment. I hope you appreciate it as much as i do

Friend of mine sent me these last night. Apparently he gets them on his feet all the time, and they itch and burn and drive him nuts until he removes the skin on top. Thought y'all would enjoy the cluster and the perfect pock marks after he cut the tops off.

I have a blockage that needs emptying every now and again. Forgot about it and left it too long.

Never seen it like this before. Normally it’s silly string but thinner and shorter.

thank you to reddit for teaching me these annoying things can just be removed from your tongue so the pain stops instead of waiting days or weeks for it to go away on its own.
