Will The Residual Hard Tissue Of A Buttock Abscess Heal By Itself?
I have had a abscess inbetween my buttocks and had drained gradually on its own. I have no pain. But where me abscess was it feels as if there is hard underlining tissue. Is this normal and will it go away. Or does it mean I still have puss in my abscess?

Hi thanks for your question.
Now you have no pain.and that area is hard.
Normally any abscess if not drained then it will heal by itself within few days with end up as fibrosis.So it feels hard.
Whenever such abscess is form antibiotic taken and it drained as if not drained then chances of reccurence is there.
So you might have reccurence abscess in that area.
Whenever it happened take antibiotic and drained it properly by consulting your doctor.
For now take no tension.
Wish you good health.
Take care
