If they immediately lanced it without waiting for antibiotics to help, does that mean anything, like it was too dangerous to wait?
Draining the pus from a wound that is on the surface of the skin is simply faster than to give antibiotics to which she could have an allergic reaction to, or secondary effects. Fixing her problem took 5 minutes, and now it just has to heal. It was probably not dangerous to wait per se, but in the middle of a pandemic, you don't want to have people coming at the ER just to do a follow up on an antibiotic. The doc took the short route.
Now. Knowing Chantal and how she healed from her hysterectomy, I'm hopeful we'll have a Return of the Boil saga.
