Ovary Removed. Had Umbilical Granuloma. Undergoing Silver Nitrate Treatment. Having Discharge, Peeling Skin Below Navel. Suggestions?
hello. I had my right ovary removed about 6 weeks ago. This friday I saw a surgeon (refered by my gyn) since I had umbilical granuloma that continued to have discharge . now, the silver nitrate treatment from the surgeon is producing worse discharge, a little viscous, and the skin in my belly button is peeling - leaving behind red, raw skin. Today, there is some blood mixed in with the discharge. any advice?
