Suggest Treatment For Painful Abscess On The Waist
Hi, I had this in grown hair that possibly turned into an abscess on my waiste line and was able to get it to drain on its own. It has left a small hole and swelling and pain went down and I am able to move around like I used to. Around the hole it s hard and I don t know if I still have puss in it. I clean it with peroxide inside and around it.. Nothing comes out. Could it just be swelling?

Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to a furuncle.
I suggest using Hydrogen peroxide to clean the area.
I also suggest using Neosporin cream for local application.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
