I have read a bunch of posts, but I don't understand the basic process of cutting into it. I understand that the goal is to get the core and that there will be blood. But... how do you cut into it? This seems like such a stupid question, but thank you for any help!
The title says it. There are maybe 10-15 currently in a few places on my body. It started with one maybe 6 months ago. Some have popped on their own and healed up, but some have been around most of that time.
I'm kind of afraid to cut them / extract the core, but I'm ready to do it bc I'm so sick of it. And not thrilled with the idea of a derm having to treat them in that area either.
So with 3.5 weeks until the derm appt (a doc new to me), what would you do now?
I'm coming off a 2.5 month injury rehab and need to restring. I've been using a hybrid of Hyper G Soft in the mains with Diadem Evolution (17g for both). I had picked up some ReString Zero (17g) just before the injury -- just wanting to play around with a different setup. So has anyone subbed Zero for Hyper G Soft? I'm wondering if this is a good move now and what the difference will be. Wouldn't mind some more spin, but arm friendly is a priority too.
For background: I used to use a multi hybrid setup but was breaking strings within days. I know multi would be arm friendly, but I need more durability than that. So I string this with a low tension, like 45-47.
Recovering from a lingering hand/wrist injury (from a fall, not from technique, lol).
