Common Questions and Answers about Abscess rupture

abscess

Avatar f tn I'm afraid I'm about to have my first abscess rupture and I am terrified. My doctor told me to just call the office if it happens but what do I do in the meantime? It is so painful and red, it hurts with just the movement of walking. I've read some horrifying stories about abscesses and what happens when they rupture.
Avatar f tn Findings are most consistent with a large hemorrhagic left ovarian cyst with evidence for recent cyst partial cyst rupture/hemorrhage with complex fluid surrounding the uterus and left ovary with small amount in the cul-de-sac. Findings similar to preceding CT study. 2. Other differential considerations include tubo-ovarian abscess or large endometrioma/fibroma.
Avatar n tn m 41yrs old, in reasonable fitness and health but have been diagnosed with a ruptured appendix and have had a drain/antibiotic therapy to clear up the infection and abscess. The appendix will be taken out in 4 weeks' time. What range of physical activity should I carry out in the interval? Would there be a risk of causing damage by lifting, bending, moderate gym exercise etc ? Thanks..
Avatar n tn After four days they did another scan and determined he did not have an abscess on his appendix so he was not going to remove his appendix. When he no longer had a fever later that day he was discharged on oral antibiotics. Yesterday he had a follow up appointment with the surgeon and he said there is only a fifteen per cent chance of any more trouble with his appendix so still no surgery. He wants to see him in two weeks to do another scan to see how his appendix is doing.
Avatar f tn It's useless to give antibiotics to prevent 'secondary infection' as there is no infective agents in that area. Only saline water wash is good enough. During my three latest abscesses, I was nt given antibiotics due to health reasons, and it didn't make any difference. Only one difference: I was better off without them, lol.
Avatar m tn Complications of conservative management included missed urethral injury, penile abscess, nodule formation at the site of rupture, permanent penile curvature, painful erection, painful coitus, erectile dysfunction, corporourethral fistula, arteriovenous fistula, and fibrotic plaque formation.
6669309 tn?1462648142 He needs his Anal Sacs/Glands expressed......Your Vet or groomer can do it....Left untreated, if they are full & cannot empty on their own, they will rupture.....Infection sets in quickly in this area, so your Vet will examine the fluid (After expression) to see if any infection is present.....If so, antibiotics are needed but normally not! This is very common in small dogs...... It's a simple procedure and only takes a minute.....
Avatar f tn Hi there! Well, without a clinical evaluation it would be difficult to determine the cause of your symptoms. Based on your description it is quite possible that you are having Bartholin's cyst .This cyst is formed due to blockage of Bartholin’s gland leading to formation of a fluid-filled cyst. A Bartholin's cyst is not an infection, although it can be caused by an infection, inflammation, or physical blockage to the Bartholin's ducts .
Avatar f tn A small head appears and they burst expelling a dark murkey liquid followed by blood. She says they are extremely tender before they rupture and after they do they look like a darkly bruised patch of skin. The bruising will go away, but it leaves a scar behind resembling a burn. Doctors have treated with different antibiotics and creams but nothing is working. The blisters come right back and sometimes in the same exact location as before.
980967 tn?1253064195 Then bathe the area with antiseptic. Make sure you get the whole tick out. If the head is left in it can cause an abscess to develop. If it's not a tick, then it could be a small boil or abscess. But that would normally be quite painful to touch, and he would definitely wince if you did. Another possibility is that it is a small cyst. If it is rounded with distinct 'edges' it may well be one. Some dogs are prone to these. My dog is.
Avatar n tn t go into all of the details but basically after almost a month of stomach pain, nausea, loss of appetite, fatigue, etc. it was discovered by way of CT scan and transvaginal ultrasound that I have an abscess on my right ovary due to a ruptured ovarian cyst. They put me on a seven day cycle of two strong antibiotics and said I should be feeling better within a few days. The thing is tomorrow will be my last day of being on the antibiotics and I'm still not feeling great.
Avatar f tn My question is if I’m theory blood or semen was placed in my beer is there a chance for hiv transmission I would like to add my gum abscess happened to rupture that night.
1839466 tn?1432593084 Last week, i ended up having my first encounter with a abscess tooth. It was and has been horrible. Since then, I have been put on Advil, Hydrocodon-acetanino, and Clindamycin. I've also seen my dentist who started a root canal on the tooth but just drilled a whole, did some drainage, not all, and left a sponge in it so it can fully drain. I'm supposed to go back next week to complete the full root canal.
Avatar f tn very, very swollen lymph nodes in the pelvic area (left side); nausea; loss of appetite; constipation; sharp pain in the lower, right abdominal area as well as muscle spasms; and a shooting pain down my right leg. Please, please help me.
Avatar n tn With the appendix rupture and abscess, you've had an awful lot of infection turned loose on your insides. That causes inflammation of the surrounding tissues. One result of that inflammation comes from the body's natural ability to try to heal and protect itself by growing scar tissue in the inflamed areas. Get enough scar tissue (adhesions) on your intestines, and you end up with the symptoms you describe.
Avatar f tn In the ER they told us that he had an abscess but now the surgeon is not so sure. My husband continues to be blotted, a low fever of 99.6 up to 103, and the pain has now returned to his abdomen. He was diagnosed Thursday this is now Monday, I told the nurse that he looks worse but she only comments that this is her first day with him. I am his wife and I am saying he is worse! We are wondering if we should ask to be moved someplace else. My husband says he just wants to get out of here.
Avatar f tn This may represent a complex ovarian cyst, possibility of hematoma or abscess cannot be excluded. I spent 5 days in the hospital (not the hospital that did the hysterectomy) on heavy antibiotics. I can not have sex without pain and still suffer from almost constant cramps and pain. Any suggestions? I have lost my insurance so I am going to a free clinic for help.
72351 tn?1281992542 Well, it just bugged me to no end of how quickly this supposed hernia developed and how large it became, so a couple of nights ago I looked very close at it and as I was doing so, one side of it ruptured and was full of pus. My gut feelings of it being an abscess rather than a hernia were confirmed. The other side of it did not rupture, but was just so large and the skin so thin, I pricked it with a needle and it too was full of pus.
Avatar n tn These lesions may resolve spontaneously or within hours to days rupture and ooze a pus-like discharge. These may heal without treatment but at a later time new lesions recur in the adjacent area. If uncontrolled, this leads to development of larger lesions (golf ball size), sinus tract formation, and involvement of multiple sites. Three distinct clinical stages have been defined for the condition.
Avatar m tn Hello, A boil, also referred to as a skin abscess, is a localized infection deep in the skin. A boil generally starts as a reddened, tender area. Apply warm compresses and keep the area clean. Also apply a topical antibiotics cream like Neosporin or Mupirocin. Drainage of the boil is done only when it becomes soft and forms a head. Take some over the counter pain reliever and consult a doctor for examination and antibiotics prescription.
Avatar n tn Has anyone experiecned this issue. It is sometimes called a subareola abscess. This is a chronic condition- I have had 3 surgeries to removed the abscess because of the pain associated with it. It is back again and my last surgery was in November. I quit smoking because that is what my one doctor to me the was the ONLY cause and that is I quit smoking it will stop them from returning 100% of the time.
Avatar f tn @Iba823 Good luck with the pomegranate juice. I honestly believe it helped me. I am in an outstanding place with this disease. I had a bump the size of a pea recently. It did not rupture. I am amazed this morning how small and soft the bump is today...awesome!!! I have a list of questions typed up. Email me at shannon_dillon***@**** and I will send you what I have so we can get this project started. If anyone is in Minnesota and needs a doctor, mine is fantastic.
Avatar n tn Although the antibiotics may kill the bacteria that is causing the abscess, if the core of the abscess does not come to the surface or is not removed by the doctor or the nurse, the abscess will continue to fester. Apply a hot compress to draw the abscess to the surface. If there is no broken skin on the abscess, you can purchase magnesium sulphate from the pharmacy and apply this to the abscess. This is a drawing ointment and can only be used on unbroken skin.
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 My 9 month old cat recently had an abscess that burst on his side. I took him to the vet two days ago and he was put on amoxicillin. Today, right next to the burst abscess there is another abscess formed. There are not visible wounds so there is nowhere to drain from. He does not feel warm to touch on his nose or his ears. The vet is closed for two days and there are no emergency clinics near me. Please offer advice on how to help my Oliver.
