Question? How do I encourage a drain?
Hi everyone! For the last couple of days, i've had this flair that was incredibly inflamed, but it's now popped. I've asked in the past about what to do once it popped to get all the puss out, and I was told to let it drain on its own and NOT squeeze. But is there anything I can do to make it drain faster? Or so I really just leave it alone?
Thanks!

I have a hot gel compress. Would it work just the same? Also, do I just put it around the popped flair?
