<s>[INST] My husband was hospitalized for five days to recieve IV antibiotics do to MSSA infection in his leg. We are home now and he is on his fourth day of oral antibiotics. Tonight his skin started peeling off in big sheets around the original abscess spot. Is this something to be concerned about? [/INST] Thanks for posting you query to Chat Doctor. If skin peeling is only limited to your original lesion you don't need to worry as it happen after resolution of swelling at abscess site. After complete removal of dead skin layer regeneration of new layer will be taken place. But if peeling is generalized to hole body and associated with some other feature you should contact to clinician because it may be due to some infection .hope you are satisfied with my answer.  Feel free to communicate if any query.regards, Chat Doctor.  </s>
