It is a small, flexible tube with a curled end (like a pigtail) used to drain fluid or an abscess over several days.
It is used when fluid keeps coming back or if there is a thick infection (abscess) that needs continuous drainage.
The tube stays in until the drainage stops, which could be a few days to a week depending on the case.
Yes, the tube is taped to your skin and connected to a drainage bag so you can move carefully.
