I just got back from the dermatologist. Apparently my physician was wrong and it was fairly large cyst. So I got that removed and it was no big deal. My mother made it out to be this big thing that made her faint and all this stuff, but I guess I should know better than to listen to her. :D

So now it's just keep it dry for a day, and go back in a week to get the stitches out. My summer fun is well intact. :)

Thanks for the reassurances Boggle. I'm a nervous person by nature, but I'll try my best to take easy.

Edit:
NVM you already had it done :)

-------------------------------------------

I'm 16 and have had three surgeries. Wisdom teeth (of course), then I have a fused joint in both feet (the one that turns the foot from side-to-side). The doctors had to go in and break it appart, then lengthen my calf muscle. On both feet, two years appart. Both times I had to stay in bed for two weeks and then crutches for 8 weeks, then physical therapy for 6 months.

What I'm trying to say is don't worry. It may hurt but in the end you won't have the problem of an ingrown hair and you will be fine! Painkillers are nice though, if you can get them, just as a precaution.

If surgery wasn't necissary they wouldn't do it, and if it was dangerous, they wouldn't do it either. the more you worry, the harder it will be, so realx!

Good luck!
