About Incision & Drainage
Incision & Drainage (I&D) is a minor but essential surgical procedure used to treat localized infections such as abscesses, cysts, or boils in the vaginal, vulvar, or surrounding pelvic areas. These conditions can cause pain, swelling, redness, and discomfort if left untreated. The procedure involves making a small, precise incision to drain the accumulated pus or infected fluid, helping relieve pain, reduce infection, and promote faster healing. It is usually performed under local anesthesia and is a safe, quick, and effective treatment when medications alone are not sufficient.
