Abscess Drainage
An abscess is a painful collection of pus caused by bacterial infection, which can occur in or around the ear, throat, or neck. Abscesses can lead to swelling, redness, tenderness, and sometimes fever if left untreated. Timely drainage is crucial to relieve pain, treat infection, and prevent complications.
