    Did you get any stitches? As long as the skin is not separated you should be fine, I'd ask your Doc.

    you should be good as long as you didn't get your delt cut open to get it drained and they used a syringe... good luck!

    the doctor just did a small cut so the liquid could come off, no syringe involved, he cut a little hole and made presure with his hands so the liquid could come off.

    I wouldnt... You might be able to do it, but you might just cause yourself a whole lot of pain and complications... Maybe a little light training with free weights on your upper body, but thats about it, in my opinion.

    I trained while I had my abcess and did not run into any complications that I was aware of.
