My husband is 36 years old n is diagnosed with branchial cyst - sinus with superadded inflammation. what is the treatment for this?

Let me explain: Infected branchial cleft cysts or sinuses require antibiotic treatment. If there are persistent problems with drainage or infection, any cysts should be surgically removed. Source: http://www.Umm.Edu/ency/article/001396trt.Htm#ixzz2lqyw1vd8.
