Hello, The best way going forward is to send the pus from wound for culture and start taking a broad spectrum antibiotic like AUGMENTING 625 mg three times a day. Your doctor may review the type of antibiotic to be used once the culture report is available. Either AUGMENTING is continued or a different antibiotic according to culture report is started in case There is resistance towards AUGMENTING. Clean your wound daily with alcohol and put do sterile Chat Doctor. You should be all right in next 7-10 days. Thanks
