Breast Abscess
Hi, i had an breast abscess 1.0×1.1 cm in size i treated it with needle aspiration by medical professional 5ml of pus was removed and little was left behind around 2ml, the pus was not in liquid form it was like mucus is it due to antibiotics ??. Since needle was aspirated twice doing third time would hv been painful. I feel swelling still in the area and get light fever due to pain. I am taking antibiotics Cephadex & dicloxacilin and also pain killer if necessary. I want to know how much time it will take to cure this infection or do i need to treat again by other means ?? I have given pus for culture it will take 3 days. Should I use any cream for lessning the swelling and clearing the infection perfectly. Please find the picture after the needle aspiration.Please suggest whom should i consult after pus culture report ? Thanks.
