In a message dated 97-04-20 00:07:05 EDT, you write: << Has anyone tried using daily small prophylactic doses of an antibiotic, similar to what is done with kids with constant otitis? >> On this same thread (and I'm a bit behind) I had asked a while back about phisohex or some similar wash as I think it was recommended for repeated boils or some such. I got the idea to try for mastitis. But I got no response. Anyone recommend or try using antiseptic washes in these cases? Laurie Wheeler, rnc, mn, ibclc
