Abscesses

Hi

Can you please help.

With APS, are we more at sceptical to Abscesses regarding the Anti-Bodies?

The reason for asking is that I might have got one and the information says that ‘Abscesses occur when an area of tissue becomes infected and the body's immune system tries to fight it’.

Is this some thing that could acure regular?

Thank you

Hi terry

not sure about this, may be a coincidence but I've had quite a few abcesses in the past.

So it's possible. Hopefully someone else will be along who knows more!

Hope you feeling well today.

Take care gentle hugs sheena xxxxxx :-) :-) :-)

It seems the warfarin slows down the healing times, this is natural because healthy clotting for cuts and wounds requires clotting to happen and warfain slows the clotting time.

If you have a cut it will take longer to heal.

I don't know whether the antibodies would affect it though.

Hi All, thank you for your answers. I did have an abscesses and had confirmed that I have now 'Gum Disease'. this is some thing that my mum had when she was my age and she had to have all her teeth pulled, so one up on her (RIP).

Is Gum Disease some other issues with APS?

Not what you're looking for?
