I went to the ER yesterday for a painful bulge in my perianal-pepineal area, on the left side of the perineum. They said it was under muscle and too hard to cut into and put me on a 2 hour IV of antibiotics and sent me home with doxycycline 100mg pills and some hydrocodone for the pain. I was told the swelling/pain should start going away soon, when everything I’m reading say it should be drained ASAP. I got a cat scan and all lab results, just feeling like I might have not got the right care.
