It is not recommended to pick at the abscess, as it may aggravate the infection. It should be allowed to break down naturally, and if necessary, the abscess can be treated with incision and drainage to promote the subsidence of the abscess.
Self-picking is not recommended when an abscess is present, as bacteria may be present on the tools used to pick it, which may aggravate the infection. If the abscess is squeezed too much, it may spread and become infected, which is not only detrimental to the resolution of the pus, but may also lead to cellulitis and other serious inflammatory diseases.
Part of the granuloma abscess can be broken on its own, mainly because when the granuloma abscess formation, if the location of the granuloma is shallow, along with the passage of time, the pus in the pus bag accumulates more and more, when accumulating to a certain pressure, usually can be cracked on its own, prompting the pus to flow out on its own.
If the abscess is deeper, there is no pus or white spots on the surface, and the pus cavity is larger, the patient can have a surgical incision and drainage, so that all the pus can be discharged to promote the recovery of the granuloma.
It is recommended that patients with granuloma consult a doctor to evaluate their condition and follow the doctor’s instructions for treatment.
