General Surgeon,  's  Response
hi.

is your father diabetic, immunocompromised or nutritionally challenged? i asked because these factors are very important in his wound healing.. if there are underlying medical conditions other than his wound, it could slow down his healing process. consultation and regular follow-up with your doctor is best. daily wound cleaning for the abscess and the surrounding area is also important, along with the proper antibiotic regimen.

hope this helps.

good day!!
