Question

A 14-month-old baby had a swelling on the left side of the clavicle. Previously, it inflamed and formed a pus-filled abscess, which was treated with incision and drainage. However, it recurred even after being incised. This was treated at the Shishou People’s Hospital.

Answer

Your situation may be a localized infection, and it is recommended to start antibiotic intravenous treatment as soon as possible. Children have weaker body resistance, making them more prone to pediatric general surgery issues. For parents, do not panic and should promptly take the child to a top-tier hospital for examination and treatment. Also, pay attention to regular check-ups for the child and treat symptoms under the guidance of a doctor.
