What does it mean if proteus maribila was found in my breast abscess culture?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
2 nd most common: Most women who get breast abscess are lactating, some may have diabetes. This bacteria is one of more common that shows up in the breast abscess. All it means that the abscess must be drained, and your body should take care of the rest. Some doctors still may give antibiotics, but drainage is best treatment.
