Patient's question:
An abscess grew on the vulva. After squeezing it, I felt the flesh became loose, as if an extra piece of meat had been added that couldn't fit. When I go to the bathroom, I can see the protruding flesh from that side even when I bend down. While walking, I also feel it sticking out and rubbing against my pants. However, I haven't experienced any discomfort. Could it be a serious problem?Doctor's answer:
Hello, in this case, the first priority is to prevent re-infection. Medication can be used, and iodine can be used for sterilization. Because when the abscess is drained, it can lead to skin loosening. As the inflammation gradually subsides, it will also heal completely and recover. Pay attention to personal hygiene in daily life, and your diet should be light recently. Avoid spicy and irritating foods. Pay close attention and, if necessary, go to the hospital for a check-up. Good luck.
