several years ago I sat on a cat grooming brush that punctured my skin, since then the site will erupt into little bumps that are like bug bites, then it becomes so swollen that it itches and the inflammation is horrid. the little bumps become one big hard swollen area then fluid filled blisters appear. the glands in my groin on the same side as the injury get inflamed as well and this makes life very uncomfortable, sometimes I cant even walk. I have had this problem looked at before in the ER. the area was lanced and found to have solidified puss deep inside the scaring. I did not have insurance so they took a culture and told me that it did not grow MRSA or any Herpes viruses but did not look into it further. I have gone to the DR. and been given antibiotic shot and oral medication and told I should talk to a surgeon, but these eruptions have been coming on for about 7years now. should I see a Dr. and pay for expensive tests or is there anything that can be done for it at all?
