[QUOTE="SupportDragon, post: 2036048, member: 109496"] I posted pictures in a response to the other commentor. He’s always had difficulty with his pores, unfortunately. He hates when I touch them so I avoid it unless I’m exfoliating them after a soak or there’s a major plug. The way I normally tell if the plug is severe is when I press upwards on the skin under his pores, I can see the outlines of the buildup through the skin. They don’t ever protrude outward through his pores, but the hormone still builds up within the glands themselves. I’d say he only has this problem with about half his pores. But, this pore has started to close on its own. It didn’t even look like a pore last week. It just looked like a tiny hole in his skin. Which was concerning because there was apparent buildup within the gland. The doctor noted it at his recheck (11/18) and I told her I was going to see if I could do anything to help it at home, first. I had been avoiding touching his pores since he started getting ill. I attempted to remove any crusting to allow it to reopen on Sunday. Monday his entire femur region swelled up. It might be infected due to the purulent exudate I noticed Sunday, but the ceftazidime should cover that. He has needed a dental but the doctor was holding off until his GI issues cleared. With the new impaction, she’s opting to put him under for the dental next week and close the pore. I’m not sure if this involves her fully removing that individual gland, she just said she was going to close it. [/QUOTE]
