Thank you very much for contacting healthcare magic.
You have problem of recurent abcess. This is seen most commonly in diabetes .
In diabetes patient more chanses of infection is more. So it may cause repeated abcess
Check your blood sugar level first.
If it is high than control blood sugar level.
Do culture test for proper selection of antibiotics.
Take care.
Thanks.
