Should I see a doctor...?

Ok, so, for the past couple of days, I've had this really small scab on my knee. When I first saw it, I didn't recall getting hurt, but I didn't think much of it because I bump into stuff and get scrapes quite often without noticing it. I'm a bit of a klutz :P

But this morning, I woke up, and saw that it had swollen a bit, and had a yellow tinge that indicated pus.

Don't continue reading if you're faint-hearted or have a weak constitution...





Mk, you've been warned.
So my mom called the doctor, and the doctor said that I should wash my hands with hot water and soap, and then try to squeeze the area and drain the pus.
EWWW. *Gag*
But anyway. I had to ignore my disgusted feelings, and did what the doctor ordered. In the process though, the scab came loose, and when I picked it off (again, doctor's orders: if it comes loose, take it off and stick a band-aid on it) a thorn literally (__) that long came out with it.
I'm pretty sure it was a rose-thorn...
But that's besides the point. So like I said, this huge rose thorn came out of my knee. It was really scary, cause it's not like it was protruding out of my knee before. The scab was completely flat on my skin, which means the thorn was deeply embedded in my knee. *Shudder.*
So I looked at the place where the thorn came out of, and there was a ditch the size of a ballpoint pen tip.
I freaked out, started looking for disinfectants... but hydrogen peroxide and neosporin both said "Do not use on... deep or puncture wound" which is EXACTLY what mine was.
So, I had to console myself with a bandaid.

It's aching less now, so I'm hoping it's getting better.
Either way, it's off to the clinic with me first thing tomorrow morning ;D

Don't wanna risk losing a limb to a thorn.
