	Abscess - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The final structure of the abscess is an abscess wall that is formed by the adjacent healthy cells in an attempt to build a barrier around the pus that limits the infected material from neighbouring structures.
		Abscesses may occur in any kind of solid tissue but most frequently on skin surface (where they may be superficial pustules (boils) or deep skin abscesses), in the lungs, brain, kidneys and tonsils.
		The drainage of the lung abscess may be performed by positioning the patient in a way that enables the contents to be discharged via the respiratory tract.

	Abscess
		Sterile abscesses are sometimes a milder form of the same process caused not by germs but by non-living irritants such as drugs.
		Sterile abscesses are quite likely to turn into hard, solid lumps as they scar, rather than remaining pockets of pus.
		Abscesses near the large bowel, particularly around the anus, may be caused by any of the numerous bacteria found within the large bowel.

	Injections & Infections
		Abscesses occur when an area of tissue becomes infected and the body is able to 'wall off' the infection to keep it from spreading.
		Abscesses in other areas of the body may not be obvious and may produce only generalized symptoms such as fever and discomfort.
		A sterile abscess may cause only a painful lump, for example deep in the buttock where a shot was given.

	Health Guide: Abscess
		An abscess is caused by disruption of a normal tissue barrier through penetrating trauma, bites, established infections, or by migration of normal flora to other sterile areas of the body.
		Abscesses of the abdomen may be a mixture of both anaerobic or aerobic gram negative bacilli such as Klebsiella and E. Coli, and anarobes such as Bacteriodes fragiles.
		Bear in mind that the abscess itself does not have a blood supply and that the antibiotics are used to prevent reoccurrence and possible spread of infection.

		When the abscess is pointing, an incision should be made over the medial bulging surface and the pus evacuated.

		Early diagnosis and quick evacuation of a brain abscess with adequate and appropriate antibiotics is the key to a successful outcome.

		Interleukin-6 (IL-6), among other cytokines, is thought to be involved in the regulation of sickness behavior (e.g., anorexia, cachexia, fever, lethargy) induced by infections (bacterial and viral origin) and sterile tissue necrosis (burns, surgical traumas).
		Sterile tissue damage was induced in mice by subcutaneous injection of turpentine (0.1 ml; left hindlimb).
		We conclude that, although IL-6 is induced during both turpentine abscess and influenza infection, this cytokine appears to be more critical in induction of the symptoms of sickness behavior during sterile tissue abscess than during influenza infection.

		In the records of the controls there were two references to unexplained lymphadenopathy, but no sterile abscesses or granulomatous lesions were recorded.
