We have a winner! It’s a Peritonsillar abscess apparently. If left untreated can be fatal! Cor-blimey Guvnor! Good job I got it checked out really, they think it’s what killed George Washington.
Behold my stash of drugs!
They also said that I’m the first person they’ve heard of that has removed their own, it normally requires surgery to drain and remove the abscess.
AlexColes.co.uk, bringing you another medical first…
Had something similar myself a few years back – one side of my neck looked as though it belonged to a bodybuilder. Antibiotics saved the day!
I got a blister on my foot the other day, do I count?
Seriously, glad you’re ok, sounded nasty (the coughing up blood bit put me off!)
LOL, my boss looked a little freaked out when I told him that part too…
Nasty
