I drained over...
30mls out of one in my thigh. It was a sterile abcess and I didn't even know I had it. I went to inject, aspirated and BAM!, white shit filled the syringe. I pulled about 20mls out that night, 10mls the next day and less than 5ml 3 days later. I went on AB's for two weeks too.
I know IronAddict had an abcess once where it took a 20gauge needle JUST to get the puss out. He said it was painful as hell. My was nothing like that, I sucked it all out with a 23 gauge.
