How Can Infected Cellulitis On The Breast Be Treated?
I was diagnosed with cellulitis in my breast and today is supposed to be my last day on antibiotics, but last night I noticed that it was swelling back up, red and peeling like a sunburn, and has pus coming out of the nipple. My primary care cat see me for a week- do I need to seek emergency/urgent care?
If the infection still continue and symptoms worse even after antibiotics you should go to energy other ER since you can't meet your primary doctor soon.
Meanwhile, take anti-inflammatory drugs such as Advil or acetaminophen for pain relief.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Olgeta Xhufka , General & Family Physician
