Drainage of a Complicated Finger Infection

Maine rates for HCPCS 26011

This procedure drains a finger infection that has become deep or complicated, such as a felon, an infection in the fleshy fingertip pad that can build painful pressure. The doctor makes an incision to release pus and relieve pressure, which also helps prevent the infection from spreading to nearby bone or tendon. It addresses infections more involved than a simple, superficial finger abscess.
