My Son is suffering from Cervical lymphadenitis, since last one month. Culture test was positive for staphylococcus Aureus. He has been given antibiotics 1.augmentin 5 days. 2. Flucloxacillin 3 days 3. Cefuroxime. Ultrasound shows pus collection and doctors drained it and sent sample for biopsy. Here I would like to take experts advise, if I am on the right path. As still my son is having pus oozing out from the surgical area. Its now 5 days post surgery. Still there is pus and hardened area below the ear.(swollen lymph node) Doctor said initial culture tests are negative and other reports will take a month for the reports to come. Need expert advise on this.
