Hello,
just a little question....
Has anyone experienced an abscess under the incision???
Jon has two times now. The first one was under the skin, not obvious, just "tight" and red around the side. He went to his PMD, got antibiotics, and then it ruptured later that day. We went to the ER and he got IV therapy. They cultured it and it was negative for VRE or MRSA, *whew!*
So after that treatment, it healed well and we thought it was done. But last night, he was at home and it opened and drained again! Back to the doctor for more antibiotics.
I was just curious if anyone else has had this happen. Its a little worrisome having it right over the heart, just under incision, especially because it goes without being noticed until it ruptures.
Thanks
