I went straight to the ER but by the time I got there, my eye was swelling shut, my neck was
swollen, and it looked like I had a golf ball implanted in my
cheek! The doc gave my 900mg of clindamiacin through my I.v. and also did a ct scan to see if the abscess had really ruptured, or if he needed to drain it. The ct scan showed that the abscess had in fact busted, so there was nothing to drain.
