How to get rid of an abscess?

Dr. Izharul Hasan

Unani Dermatologist

Answered on 9th Feb '23

Surgical removal is good option, during the procedure, the doctor cuts into the abscess, to allow the pus to drain out. They may also take a sample of pus for testing. Once all of the pus has been removed, doctor will clean the hole that is left by the abscess using sterile saline.

An abscess can form anywhere in the body, such as abscess on buttocks, groin, genital area, or organs. You can read everything about the causes and treatment of the painful accumulation of pus here.

An abscess is a cavity in the tissue filled with pus that can develop in many different parts of the body – abscess on buttocks, on the neck, on the gums or in organs such as the intestines. In order to treat the painful boils, the doctor usually opens them.

Unlike other bacterial infections, antibiotics alone don’t cure abscesses. It must open and drain out the pus. Draining may occur on its own, but in most cases, it drains with the help of a warm compress or by a surgeon in a procedure called incision and drainage (I&D).

Hello
Abscess can get healed with acupuncture. 
At times due to excess pus formation, pus can be removed and then acupuncture is given for balancing the body meridians to stop recurrent abscess.
take care
