Seek attention : If you have draining abscesses, especially as large as described, you need to be evaluated by a physician. The treatment may be as simple as bedside drainage and oral antibiotics, or inpatient admission for IV antibiotics. If the abscesses are very deep you may even need surgery for drainage. You should be seen promptly.
