Hello,
I had an infection in my rectal about 2.5 months back which then became an prei-rectal abcess with lots of swellng on my riight butt-cheek. I got I&D procedure done and got put on anti-biotic. It has been going on for last 8 weeks now and abcess is draining but there is about 1 inch hard swelling that continues to stay. I have been doing 3 times a day sitz bath, taking my anti-biotic seriously and keeping my anal area clean well.
I have been referred to a General surgeon next week for him to look at as to why this is still draining and that swellng on right butt-cheek not going away.
How do I know if it Fistual due to which it is still draining and not closing or it is just a bad abcess that needs to be drained surgically somehow.
Any help anyone can extend is greatly appreciated.
Regards
