No pus on the outside.
I'm just worried that if the infection gets trapped in the abscess, it will grow again.

BTW, does anyone know if snake's absorb substances through their skin? I can't find anything about it on Google, and I'm just curious as to whether or not any of the antiobiotic ointment makes it's way into the abscess at all.
