I think I have one. 
I do NOT want to go drop another $175 at the doctor's office for meds.

Over the counter ointment from the pharmacy has worked for me in the past.

I get them a lot, I just wait them out. Or do the warm compress. I've never gone to the doctor for one.

I'm pretty sure I don't have a pure gold ring. I'll try the ointment and the compress, though. Thanks!

yeah going to the doctor is a waste of money for something like that. the warm compress relieves some of the pain and swelling for sure. i waited mine out and
it only lasted about a week anyways.

Warm compresses and Golden eye from the pharmacy did the trick for me too, it starting shrinking straight away.

Yeah warm compresses are the way to go. My husband gets them several times a year, and that's what he does, from the second he feels it coming on.
