Incision & Drainage of Abscess
(simple and perianal)

This procedure involves making an incision in the skin to drain pus from an abscess. For perianal abscesses, the area is cleaned thoroughly, and sometimes a gauze wick is placed to keep the incision open for further drainage. This helps relieve pain and prevent the spread of infection.
