An abscess is a localized collection of pus that forms due to infection, usually caused by bacteria. It can occur anywhere in the body, commonly affecting the skin, teeth, or internal organs. Symptoms include swelling, redness, warmth, pain, and sometimes fever. Treatment involves draining the pus, cleaning the infected area, and antibiotics to eliminate infection. Prompt medical attention prevents complications, promotes faster healing, and reduces the risk of recurrence or systemic infection.
Abscesses can be cutaneous, dental, perianal, breast, internal, or organ-specific. They form due to localized bacterial infections and vary in severity and location. Treatment depends on type, size, and infection severity, usually involving drainage and antibiotics.
Abscesses develop due to bacterial infections, poor hygiene, blocked glands, trauma, or underlying medical conditions. Untreated abscesses can cause pain, swelling, systemic infection, or sepsis, making timely medical evaluation and treatment essential to drain pus, control infection, and prevent complications.

Abscesses develop due to bacterial infections, blocked glands, trauma, poor hygiene, or underlying medical conditions, resulting in localized pus formation and inflammation.
Treatment usually involves draining the pus, cleaning the affected area, and antibiotics to eliminate infection and prevent further complications or recurrence.
If untreated, abscesses can lead to spread of infection, sepsis, tissue damage, or life-threatening complications, especially in immunocompromised patients.
Recovery depends on abscess size, location, and treatment type, but most skin abscesses heal within a few days to weeks after drainage.
