[|Human|] I had a stapectomy 10 days ago. I am an immune compromised patient. Yesterday a painful boil came up on the back of my neck. I am not running a fever. It is not worse or better today..... very painful though. I have put hot compresses on it and it helps the pain temporarily. Do I need to go to my Infectious Disease doctor tomorrow, or give it a few days?
[|AI|]  Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have some abscess formation.  You should not wait. Furthermore, you should consult infectious diseases specialist and take a course of antibiotics.  Furthermore, you should go for culture and sensitivity testing of pus. Then you should take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health.
