Okay, so, I think this could go under health or injuries. So I just put it here. This is a bit longer than I thought so I just put **'s by where the question actually is.

Well, I had a cyst in my lower back for over a year (July 08). Bothered me everytime I sat down, eventually I got used to sitting a certain way but in long eriods of time in school it would strain my back. Well, I went to many doctors who prescribed tons of medicine which NEVER worked. Frusterated me. Finally, my mother took me to a dermatologist, which prescribed me the same medication... still didn't worked. Well, they finally just took out the stupid thing about 2 weeks ago. well they stitched it up the hole and told me to come back in 10 days. About 5 days later, a hole appeared, kinda like the stitches breaking. I went back ASAP the doctor said it looked fine. Then, I went and got the stitches taken out, thought everything was wonderful, not even a day later this huge hole appeared.

**The stitches didn't work. The wound broke open. Now this is where you come in, haha, Any ideas? I mean there was no blood and it doesn't hurt. Should I just leave it alone for a couple days and it'll eventually heal itself? Or go back to this stupid doctor again? It's really frusterating and disgusting for me. 17/f (link)
I don't know what your insurance is, but you might want to get a second opinion.

I have Kaiser and had ingrown toenails removed in January. I was in a lot of pain and the nail ended up falling off. I went to 2 other Podiatrist before I found my current one, who is the head of the Podiatry department. He explained to me what happened, the other didn't.

My health insurance right now is great. There is no pain but I just don't want any more complications. I'm just gonna wait a week with no pain, and hopefully it will start healing on its own.
