Abscess drainage is a medical procedure used to clear a pocket of pus that has collected under the skin or within tissue. A healthcare provider makes a small incision to allow the infected material to exit the body safely. This intervention is necessary when an infection does not resolve on its own or through antibiotic therapy alone.
During the appointment, the area around the infection is cleaned and numbed to ensure patient comfort. The provider performs the drainage and then cleans the cavity thoroughly to remove remaining debris. Proper dressing is applied to the site, and patients receive clear instructions for home care to support the recovery process.
