“…They are usually painful, tender, and fluctuant red nodules, often surmounted by a pustule and surrounded by a rim of erythematous swelling. Cutaneous abscesses are typically polymicrobial, containing bacteria that constitute the normal regional skin flora, often combined with organisms from adjacent mucous membranes [24][25][26][27][28][29][30]. S. aureus is present, usually as a single pathogen, in only ∼25% of cutaneous abscesses overall.…”
