Oh no!  I had missed you posting about the knot,  You sure are not doing well with this infection thing.  I hope that you get good news at the PS tomorrow morning.

I like you have found that I really like my PS, but am concerned about the "relaxed" follow up care.  I am getting ready to post a picture of my that we are waiting to see about...it just makes me nervous.

A word from the c. diff girl.....make sure to take your probiotics with your antibiotics! :-)

I assume the "knot" was external since it broke open?  The drainage you describe sounds infectious.  Make sure to wash your hands well after dressing this area.  Stay cool and not sweaty.  Drink lots of water and take your supplements, including prebiotics with your antibiotics.

Let us know what you find out.  Boo hoo - sorry you are experiencing his.

I will be posting in a couple days with before & after pics.  My open wound is CLOSED - hurrah! and I can move on.

Dude,
I was hoping you were on the mend. Isn't it crazy how things keep popping up with all of us?  Anyway, hopefully it is not an infection. It could be a seroma that just opened.  Watch for fever overnight.  Hopefully you will get answers tomorrow.
