Hello,

Thanks for writing to HealthCareMagic, I am Dr Muhammd Ahmad, I have closely read your question and I understand your concerns, I will hereby guide you regarding your health related problem.

You seem to be having and abcess and when there is an abcess filled with pus, we just have one choice and that is to drain the pus out, I will suggest you not to panic and complete the course of medication.

If pus still stays there then unfortunately it will have to be evacuated from there otherwise it will keep getting worse. It is not a big procedure usually they just give a local anaesthetic and drain the pus out it usually takes 15 minutes and usually isnt accompanied by any pain.



I hope this answered your question, if you have more feel free to ask,otherwise close the discussion and rate it.

Regards.

Dr.Muhammad Ahmad.
