Try putting warm towels on it, to see if it will help drain.

Not too hot...the area is very sensitive...but maybe the draining plus the antibiotics will help ease his discomfort.

We had one that abcessed one time...

and then burst open on Christmas Eve right before 30 people were due to show up at our house! It oozed and drained for about 10 days and he was on antibiotics. We had to put a pair of bikini underwear on him with a pad inside to keep his surroundings clean. After it healed up he was fine. Poor baby passed away from lymphoma last year.
