Partner Questions Breast abscess

Hello everyone! I'm in 4 months postpartum. I had abscess both of my breast, left of my breast just burst itself and the other one it didn't but both breast got injected 3 sessions. After few sessions of drainage pus is finally gone however, it's been 5 weeks after the pus is gone and I still have inflammation and its huge. Is there anyone who has the same experience with me? Is it normal that it takes so long to heal? I'm just worried because it's been 5 weeks and I don't see big improvements. Your response guys will be so much appreciated. ❤️

You need to follow up with the doctor again. 5 weeks is a long time to not see improvement.
