Perineal Abscess

Perineal Abscess

Question: How can a perineal abscess be completely cured, since it keeps recurring every year around this time?

Answer: Most perineal abscesses are caused by Bartholin’s gland infections, though some are due to folliculitis. The preferred treatment is incision and drainage, with more severe cases requiring continuous dressing changes. TCM uses methods such as clearing heat and detoxifying, supporting the body’s ability to drain pus, and reducing inflammation to achieve similar results.
