Recurrent abscesses on inner thigh groin
I'm a 42 year old male and have been suffering from recurrent abscesses on my left inner thigh groin area.
Everytime the abscess forms, I apply T-Bact ointment which eventualy drains the pus out of the abscess in a few days but the abscess recurrs within a few months, usually along the same area (left inner thigh groin)
Attaching a picture of the abscess with this email. Kindly advise.

You need oral antibiotics after testing the pus as to what bacteria it is
Unless directed to the correct bacteria and correct antibiotic it will keep coming back
Kindly consult
