Could There Be An Infection At The Area Of Fistula Surgery?

Hi, I am Ranjan Kumar Singh from Jamshedpur, Jharkhand. i am 27 years old. I had a fistula surgery on 26th Sep and as per doctor track has been removed however doctor who did operations he said healing will take time however skin has already joint early but little bit pus/water are coming, it is not regularly but sometime.



Kindly suggest what should i do, do i need to wait till healing are completely done. or is there any test which can clear what is the healing position and is there any infaction inside?
