[QUOTE="TCRanch, post: 1690647, member: 24027"] It's a little nerve wracking the first time, but relatively simple and a combination of gross, yet fascinating. Make sure the scalpel is sharp! I cut an "X" on the lower part of the abscess so it will continue to drain. Get as much out as possible & flush with diluted iodine or an antibiotic spray. Sometimes I follow up with an antibiotic, sometimes I don't. That said, depending on the severity of the abscess & where it's located, I also sometimes just let it burst & heal itself - benign neglect. [/QUOTE]
