Hi,
With breast abscess mainstay of treatment is drainage after incision. Mostly used antibiotics are nafcillin, vancomycin, clindamycin, ampicillin-sulbactam, cloxacillin etc. Stay compliant to the medication and stay in touch with your doctor. Stay hydrated, use pain killers like tylenol for the pain and use antibiotics.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ivan R. Rommstein, General Surgeon
