Is it necessary to take antibiotics to cure an abscess?
Since an abscess is caused by a bacterial infection, antibiotics are often used to kill the bacteria. At best, appropriate substances are chosen depending on the pathogen. Since antibiotics promote the killing of the bacteria, they can contribute to the healing process. They can support the body’s own immune system in its fight against the pathogens.
What is the homeopathic treatment of an abscess?
In some cases, homeopathic treatment can be supportive in addition to conventional medical treatment. Talgmus nut tree is often used to treat an abscess. This substance is also called Myristica sebifera.
It is supposed to promote the opening of the abscess and thus lead to a relief. A controlled drainage of the pus favors the healing process. If homeopathic treatment is desired, the type and duration of taking the remedy should be discussed with the doctor.
