What is happening ?
I had surgery on my foot 5 weeks ago. My surgeon made sure with an x ray that the screws were in place and they were and he removed the stitches 1 week ago and i was cleared to take a bath. I dida few days later and made sure my incisions (3) were dry. I covered them and wore my walking boot as i am still not suppose to put weight on my foot yet. Not for at least another week. I am seing him next week but wondering if i should go to the ER or no.
It's weeping a little,light yellowish and slightly sticky waxy kinf of,no smell,not warm to the touch and no fever. I change my dressing once a day and it's not full of it either. The incision is the one over the screws so it hurt bad still but it's manageable. It hurt less than the latst month for sure. I elevate my leg and ice when needed. The appearance of the scar is freaking me a little as i never experienced something like that.
The white-yellow part cannot be wiped it just feels like skin. Maybe someone can help ?
