Got a consultation for Red swelling

2024-09-27 16:45:12
I had a red patch and consulted with surgeon to treat it as cellulitis infection with antibiotics and Mupirocin ointment. Later a week, again two dermatologist suggest it is an abscess to treat further with antibiotics. This is third week completion and I'm not sure whether it is healing or not. Please comment if you can observe anything or need further consultation to which specialist.
