Last time it was small and I thought it will go away after a while. It only begins to swell the last 2 weeks. What should I do now? Do I go to a GP or to the hospital? It's there for a few months already.

faster say bai bai to dis lovely world.

go to a GP.. who will look at it and then figure out what to do..
either a small minor op in their little room to drain it, or send you to a hospital for a minor op too..
thing is, go see a doctor..

lymph node
. mai tan liao. go see doc at SGH -
Does anyone of you have a reliable, good and affordable GP to recommend or do I go to the nearest GP at my place? Nowadays I don't know which GP to trust. If I go to SGH, how much do I need? I have not much money with me now.

Meh. Drain it yourself like a real men. Get one of those really sharp exacto knife or whatever they're called.
Wipe lump with Dettol or similar.
Wipe blade.
Poke until you feel tip of blade is through.
Squeeze and have fun.
Wipe lump again.

Mi see doctor for what, i got no lump..erh just the 2 front soft one...getting bigger lah..how? -
An abscess (AB-ses) is an infected pocket of pus. You're likely to experience pain, soreness, redness, swelling, or fever. The abscess may feel like a soft, moveable lump under your skin.
I can feel the pain when I press it but it's bearable. Anyone knows of any reliable doctor?
-
I think I saw a lump thingy before on my Dad before too...but nothing happened liao.
I think you go see normal GP can already...
-
dun worry lah, when it's cooked (can see a "head"), u can squeeze it out like pimple...

Get a health metal instrument, very common, with a sharp metal tip.
Poke into the abcess to drain it. It is almost painless due to the poking, instead of cutting using knife. and very effective somemore..
-
pls lah no need. I got it before too. i swells to the size of like a female's nipple. Just use a sanitized needle and poke it. blood and pus will flow out. keep squeezing it till no more pus is seen flowing out. wipe with tissue and wash.
Once you got it, there is a chance it may come back if you nv take care of your hygiene or become very heaty. I know coz i got it twice le.
Good luck! haha remember to thank me when u got it solved.
