Have noticed what looks like a boil (size of a 5p) on the front part of pubic area..i have not squeezed it as it just burst in the shower, lots and lots of pus has come out of it and now it wont stop bleeding, there is a massive deep hole in the middle of it, but is has been constantly bleeding now for a good few hours....my concern is will it heal ok and will it leave a horrible scar ? Unsure if its a hair follicle but never had anything like this before...is it worth seeing my GP ? Not sure what the difference is between a boil or absess...

Put a gauze dressing on it, and bahe it gently in a few hours, and change the dressing.
Keep this going until the puss and blood stops, and it should start to heal.
If you are worried, get your GP to have a look - the practice nurse will be fine if your surgery has one - and get some expert advice.
