Hi
I understand your concern and situation.
It seems that you have some bacterial infection which is drug resistant or tubercular infection. You must also take tests like gram staining, ZN staining and culture sensitivity for aerobic and anaerobic bacteria and mycobacterial infection. You must take treatment according with regular drainage.
Take care
