Hi. Im a 54 year old female with a surgical wound that is not healing. I have had 3 surgeries in the last 9 months. the last one was to remove mesh and replace with bio. It is trying to close and has new skin but I have tunneling in 2 spots, one is 2.6cm and the other is 5.2cm deep. I also have pale green, thick drainage, moderate with no odor. Should I be concerned about this? My surgery was May 19 and I continue to see my doctor and he says its ok and wait and see.
Hello dear, Thank you for your contact to Chat Doctor. I read and understand your concern. I am Chat Doctor answering your concern. Usually any wound with surgery will close in a week or two. Any wound longer than that should be thoroughly investigated. I advise you to do Grams staining, culture and sensitivity from the green discharge. If it says organisms than you can take the Chat Doctor. Please take the
