Should Antibiotics Be Taken For A Ruptured Abscess?
I have an abscess that began to leak puss so my instinct what that it was ready to burst but it only leaked a little blood and puss and now the tip of it doesn t so much look like a pimple but it s now kind of black and looks like it s pulling blood should I just keep taking my antibiotic and keep using saltwater rinses and such? I don t feel bad, don t have a fever, so I assume I m okay
