What is done for bone abscesses?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Surgery : If suspected, the patient should be brought to the hospital and the abscess should be biopsied, cultured and the defect packed, possibly with antibiotic impregnated beads. The patient may be on IV antibiotics for a period of time based on the doctors recommendations.
