Abscess Drainage Procedure and Complications

The provider incises the area of abscess and drains the collection of pus, such as those related to a carbuncle, hidradenitis, cyst, furuncle, or paronychia, with the help of surgical instruments. A complicated incision and drainage can involve multiple incisions, drain placements, extensive packing, and a more complicated wound closure.
