What Causes Pain And Bruise At The Site Of Pilonidal Abscess Removal?
I had an operation to remove a pilonidal abcess 5 months ago, it started to come back 2weeks ago and doctor have me some antibiotics. I hve finished the cause of tablets and i am still in pain and my scar is still very bruised. Why is the area bruised? Do you think I still have the abcess? Kind regards
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, yes this could be formation of abscess if this is not being done properly when it was abscess first time if the pus was not drained properly and some part of it remained there then it may turned into abscess later on, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day
