ABSCESS Treatment
4 days ago, I was diagnosed with an abscess on my neck beside my Adam's apple. Doctor suggested 5 days of medication - LyserD and Actclav 625. Is there any home treatment for the abscess? Is Incision/ surgery the only way out? Please find attached the image of my abscess. Kindly suggest what I should do. There are 3 days remaining for my medications to end after which the doctor had asked me to revisit and decide about incision. Thank you
