Normal or Test Flu?

This quote is from medline...

"Treatment
The goal of treatment is to cure the infection. The doctor may cut and drain the abscess to clean the area and control the infection. Antibiotics are given by mouth to control the infection.

Heat (such as warm compresses) may speed healing, reduce inflammation, and make the area feel better. Raise the affected part to reduce swelling and inflammation."

Here in the ER that I work at we always tell them to put warm compresses on areas that look infected or have an abscess from staff or mrsa.

thanks man...will do, would a hot bath or sitting in the spa help?

Hot bath may be ok, but I dont know if the sauna would do much. I personally would just do the compresses. I hope all turns out good.
