Brief Answer:
Do you have swollen legs? Can you upload an image for review?

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this fluid discharge from the leg. I will like to know what the possible associated conditions are. Are the legs swollen? Do you think you have an infection? This is because addressing this issue has to take into consideration all of this information. While some fluid discharge might be related to excess fluid accumulation in the legs, an infection at times might explain it. If possible, also upload an image for review so that we can be of most help to you!

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thanks for using our services.
