Default It is interesting--

--that they are having you take antibiotics with the skin biopsy; do they sense you are prone to infection for some reason?

With all the skin biopsies I've had, never were oral antibiotics involved; they simply gave me topicals to apply to the area for a few days after the little bandages came off. The skin samples taken are so small and shallow that there is little chance of infection, I think, in non-immunocompromised individuals.
