Buttocks abscess

2017-11-25 07:35:58
I've been suffering from buttocks abscess for 5 days and I've already been taking some antibiotics for it to show up. This day there is a big circle in the area and I popped it with sterilized needle and syringe, but the bad news is there is only blood that came out, there were no pus, and I was worried that it might get infected, I already put some betadine in the area, what should I do doc?
