Is it safe to operate on abscess when it's infected?
Posted , 1 user is following.
Hi, I have a 1cm abscess on my nose, near my eye.
My doctor diagnosed that it is slightly infected and prescribed me to take an antibiotic.
I've been taking it for 6 days now without much noticeable change.
I also spoke with a surgeon that suggested to cut it open to clean and drain it if there's still no change by day 8.
Is it safe to operate on the abscess while it's still infected or should I try taking a different antibiotic?
