How Can Infected Boils On The Breast During Pregnancy Be Treated?
Hello, Antibiotics have to be started at the earliest, but as she is pregnant she cannot use most of the antibiotics. Consult a general surgeon and start on antibiotics preferably amoxicillin. The pus and debris have to be removed thoroughly. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Regards, Dr Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
