I had a tattoo removed 8 weeks ago, and while I was feeding her my 9 month old baby pulled the scab off and ate it. Since then a scab healed back over it, but I kept touching it and picking at it and in the end it started oozing green puss.
I had to go to my GP and was given strong antibiotics which have been making me feel sick and lethargic, and it's still leaking clear puss now.
Have you ever had anything similarly gross? Can you out-gross this?

In grown hairs can get pretty nasty. I have a recurring one on the back of my thigh. It comes about every 2 months. I get a large blister, it's dark in the center and red all over. With the tiniest bit of pressure, red and green puss pours out first, the more direct pressure makes a small ball of hard fat shoot out, and with one last final squeese a long dark shell of hair makes it way out of the skin, it's about the size of the tip of a rolling ball pen. I say it's a shell because it's black on the outside, it's hard and it has some white coating on it, when you peel the coating away, the hair shell opens up and inside of it is the mushy white stuff pimples are made out of.
How's that?
I like to inspect my stuff too...but I've never eaten it.

Not sure if this is truely as gross as that but it makes me squirm every time I think back on it......
I had a 1/8" piece of glass buried in my eyeball for 6 days before having it pulled out by an eye doctor. Didn't know it was there, but knew something was wrong....took that long to figure out what it was. It was stuck in the top part of my eyeball, couldn't be seen with the naked eye. Ouch!

Last year me and my gf went out. Long story short i slammed my thumb in the door of her old buick. Because the door was locked i decided just to pull my thumb out not thinking it was stuck that bad. We went into the store when i could feel a warm trickle down my thumb, needless to say my thumb was split open VERY badly. It was disgusting literally i could see the bone. I admit to not being very smart, i decided to go with my friend to the party and drink, instead of going to the hospital. I still have a nasty scar.

my grandma's feet had gangrene due to losing circulation from a blood clot. They turned black and cracked open oozing green pus and black necrotic flesh. All 10 toes were amputated.
Btw- the clear pus is actually a good sign means the infection is gone that clear stuff is white blood cells cleaning house as it heals

oh i feel sick, tried not to read everyone elses. On holiday one night mosquito dug a hole in my leg, made a nest and laid eggs - i have no idea how it did this - it must have taken him ages but thats pretty gross I'd say. The scar is probably 2 inches in diameter and just looks weird.

i got some tissue stuck up my nose that caused puss to pour from my nostril and down the back of my throat until it became dislodged and was sneezed out a month later.

My mate was pissing aabout with a knife and accidentally stabbed me in the leg.................it was just above the knee so opened up quite regularly.
You could see all the bubbles of fat inside.
Tasty ;)
