the beginning of a thought

all of my friends are getting furuncles...i think this might mean something.

The furuncle may begin as a tender, pinkish-red, swollen nodule but ultimately feel like a water-filled balloon. It:

  • Is usually pea-sized, but may be as large as a golf ball
  • May develop white or yellow centers (pustules)
  • May join with another furuncle or spread to other skin areas
  • May grow rapidly
  • May weep, ooze, crust
