Abscesses can be irritating and painful. Abscesses or pockets of pus under the skin can cause swelling and nearby skin to die. Abscesses should not be left untreated, as the infection can become irritated and inflamed, causing more complications down the road. If abscesses are drained at home, or improperly, you may run the risk of an infection and have a higher chance of the abscess returning.

To have your abscess drained by professionals, contact Vitality Family Health today. We will drain abscesses as necessary (smaller pus pockets may not require drainage) and prescribe antibiotics (along with gut-saving probiotics) to help reduce inflammation and get the abscess under control, before and after the procedure.

To schedule your abscess drainage in Oak Brook, contact our primary care practice today.
