Isaac developed a nasty staph infection on his left buttocks last week. We went to the E.R. on Sunday and was there for 5 hours. The doctor had to lance the abcess and shoved a rather large Q-tip inside and Isaac was screaming in pain! I hated watching - it was horrible!
We left and thought that with the atibiotics prescribed, he would be okay. Well.....on Tuesday, we followed up with his regular peditrician and he decided to admit Isaac to the hospital, since he started having a hight fever and the site actually got bigger.
When he was finally admitted, a few hours passed and he went into surgery to have the rest of the area drained and a temporary drain put in. It was a quick procedure, which today, has helped! His little booty is still sore, but he's feeling a lot better! I hate staph infections - YUCK!!
