A member asked:
Have a cyst on anterior thigh, no streaking, or other signs of sepsis, however has ruptured took penicillin, should i see md still ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
What's it doing?? : If it ruptured and is now healing, there should be no need. If it persistently drains, closes and reaccumulates, or is causing pain or looks red & feels hot--then yes for any of those.
