Understanding Abscesses: When Drainage is Required

An abscess is a collection of infected fluid (pus) that can occur anywhere in the body. In gastrointestinal conditions, abscesses commonly develop in the abdomen, pelvis, or around organs like the liver, pancreas, or intestines. While some small abscesses may respond to antibiotics alone, larger or complex abscesses often require surgical drainage for complete healing.

Common Types of Abscesses We Treat:

🚨 When to Seek Immediate Medical Attention:

Fever above 101°F (38.3°C)
Severe, worsening pain
Swelling or tender mass
Redness and warmth in the area
