Common Questions and Answers about Abscess medication

abscess

Avatar m tn While I was on interferon therapy and my resistance was low, I developed an abscess on my buttock that was drained and healed. For several months now I have had pain that feels deeper in the tissue, possibly in the ischeum. It has never come to a point and there is no drainage that I can detect. I cannot see any external signs of swelling or redness. Have not been feverish recently. Could this be an ischiorectal abscess or possibly pudental nerve pain?
Avatar f tn A week back, I developed a pilondial abscess from a B-12 injection in my glute. The medication must have moved. It started out as a soreness I initially thought was related to my lower back from working out, but in a matter of a day grew worse. I was unable to sleep and on top of this was battling a cold. So, I was experiencing chills but it could also be from that I was barely even able to sit down.

Avatar m tn My 1 year old grandson had developed a Perianal Abscess and had a surgery under GA. Some 20 ml. pus was removed from a 5 cm deep cavity near anus at 01 O'Clock position and 1 cm away.The surgeon put a drain pipe which did not stay more than 1 day and then it was not replaced.He was given antibiotics for 2-3 days and kept under observation and sent home after 5 days.He was advised Betadine sitz bath after each poo. No other medication was prescribed.
2212714 tn?1342258744 The doc does not suggest any other medication. Taperring off the medication is quickly followed by another round of pills, Any ideas? Oh GeGe is becoming very defensive concerning touching her tail end to wash or comb it. Has anyone used Oarmeal Pet Spry for itch relief. It seemed to sooth her last night.No instructions as to washing off or leaving this conditioner on her. Any experience with it?
Avatar m tn The fact that the abscess has hardened and draining it was not possible,I presume your Surgeon wants to run more tests probably to evaluate the extent of this abscess or because he thinks that it could be something other than an abscess,such as scar tissue,a fibroadenoma, fat necrosis or other growth. I think your Surgeon is doing the right thing to further investigate this lump, before considering surgery.
Avatar n tn Hi there,I think that the first thing you should do is to let your mom know about this problem..and then to have this checked out by your doctor who will tell you what this is.At your young age and because of hormonal changes in your body,the breasts can be affected with lumps and cysts.What you have,could also be an abscess, and if it is, your doctor will prescribe some medication.Until your doctor checks this lump,no one can be sure what this lump really is.
Avatar f tn Last night I noticed a lump behind my ear. I've had swollen lymph nodes numerous times so I knew it wasn't that. It felt like a bubble, was tender and felt warm. Around the same time, every time I stood up or bent down, I had an excruciating pain in the left front side of my head and at times the left top side of my nose simultaneously. Sometimes the shooting pain in my head alone happens when I am just sitting still.
Avatar f tn On Sunday, I sought medical treatment at a local clinic as my doctors office was closed. They lanced, drained, and packed the abscess. The PA did things much differently than I've ever had done before. Firstly, he used no lidocaine or numbing medication, as he said it doesn't help. Let me tell you-this was much more excruciating than the other lances I've had done. Also, he didn't squeeze the pus out, he just let it drain on its own.
Avatar n tn the way that my particular immune system looks after me......I had it drained.....I am now on a medication to prevent more....a medication called Purinethol: Has your sister had any ultra sounds or cat scans done to see if she had Crohn's disease?
1307768 tn?1273363703 I had a root canal on my bottom left tooth(#19) 2 days ago, i've had 2 others with no pain, but this time it hurts. not the tooth itself but underneath in the gum by the jawbone, i noticed when i press on my cheek. my tooth feels excellent i can eat on it with no pain. i have a narrow jaw and as the endodontist said, long roots. maybe this has to do with the pain? its right by the nerve in my jaw, i can feel that much.
Avatar f tn Has anyone had a successful outcome when an anal abscess is treated with a seton string? Please Help!!!!!!!!
Avatar n tn i posted before. i had an abscessed tooth and the abscess spread into my cheek. my dentist put me on keflex but after 10 days there was still noticable swelling in my cheek. so now the dentist has put me on a stronger antibiotic. when i woke up this morning i felt a very large "bubble" on my inside cheek.
Avatar n tn ) After feeling the scalple slicing open my abscess, then the doctor found a previous abscess under that one and had to slice it open as well. After all of this, it was time to begin packing the wound with this stringgy gauze filled with antibiotic by using a small pair of sissors to do it. I felt everything! It felt like he was poking the abscess with the sharp sissor and then dragging it around the inside edges of the wound. Another very painful and tramatic experience!
Avatar f tn 6) and the doctors ruled out strep and mono once again and put him on the same medication regimen. Could his symptoms possibly stem from a tooth abscess?? If not a tooth abscess what else do you think could be causing his symptoms? Thank you in advance for your response.
Avatar f tn Well we had our FIRST vet appointment today and it was about $233 for x-rays of the cat's broken leg, vaccines (including rabies), ear infection medication, worm medication, and the consultation. I don't even pay that much for MYSELF when I go see the doctor... but then again, I have insurance. I contacted PAWS to see if they could help us with a lower cost neuter since the little guy is a stray and we're just a young pastoral couple who don't make much.
Avatar f tn secondly there are no herbs or natural remedies that will be effective with the treatment of this abscess, kitty will need to be on a medication from your Vet. an abscess can be a life threatening issue, please don't hesitate to have a Vet look after this for kitty. I could give you some idea's on natural remedies to help strengthen his immune system(only) after the surgery if you like, however do be sure and use the antibiotic as prescribed.
