Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I had a sebasceous cyst removed last week. It was infected and the doctor put me on Keflex. It has been a week and there is still a bit of pus and blood coming from the site. Also, lab results showed "no growth" and I am wondering that that means?
Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum. Probably the cyst is not been removed completely, or there could be some resistant infection. I advise you to consult a surgeon for diagnosis and treatment. You may need to have culture and sensitivity of the discharge for diagnosis of the growth and its sensitivity, treatment is to be given depending on the result. I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms ofloxacin, ornidazole, and serratiopeptidase, diclofenac . Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
