A member asked:

Can you tell me is it healthy to still have a lump after an abscess has stopped draining and antibiotics?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Induration: After an abscess has been drained the skin can still feel "thickened" and vaguely and mildly tender but not exquisitely tender as before it was drained.
