Hi everyone,
I've recently had my 5th abcess in as many months. As soon as one is healed another one appears, each one is a little bigger than the one before it. This time I had to go to hospital to have it drained due to the pain and the size (about the size of a golf ball) The doctor at the hospital basically told me to get used to them, being a type 1 diabetic I am more prone to them and there is nothing I can do to prevent them. Does anyone else have this sort of problem?
I must just mention that I've never had an abcsess at an injection site, I was diagnosed with type 1 around 6 years ago and if i'm being completely honest my sugars are very up and down
