I would hate to have it lanced that often! I've only had to lance it once, the rest of the time it resolved on its own. I will have to look into where I can get it surgically removed around here. I thought it was getting better today because it feels smaller, but it's still not draining, more painful, and (gross warning) I can smell the infection through my skin. I'm not sure they can do surgery on it while infected, so for now I'll just have to get it lanced again.
