<prompt> If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patients description.Hello, My husband had a golfball size cyst removed from the web between his thumb and forefinger 2 weeks ago. They chose to leave it open to heal with drainage gauze in, to be removed an inch a day. This partially healed 14 hole is still draining pus. It has gone from yellow to white. Is this normal?  <response>: Thanks for contacting ChatDoctorI understand that your husband had a cyst removed, and they left it open with a gauze packing into the area. It has been healing and now only 14 with white discharge. This is the normal healing process and the white discharge is normal. I can reassure you that all is going as planned and both of you have nothing to worry about Hope I answered your question. Please contact us again with your medical concerns
