I did not use antibiotics because someone on here mentioned possible scarring. I just treated it by draining it frequently and keeping it covered with a breathable dressing. It was caused by the canula raking around and making a large wound that was open for too long (I left the canula in for about 4-5 days and only removed it after it was painful. The solution for me is to not use that part of my body any more.</p></blockquote><p></p>
