I have an open sore on the crown of my head that is oozing green. I had a MRI with contrast and the sore appeared 2 days later. I just had a major back surgery and I am a diabetic. My body gas suffered a lot of trauma and I have been on many medications . Is this an ER visit it should it be safe to wait and go to Dr. on Tuesday?

Dear sir/madam
Usually green discharge from the wound site is caused by anerobe bacteria such as pseudomonos.
It should be taken seriously always. You cannot always use conventional antibiotics, you need to proceed with pus culture and sensitivity for the same.
You need to consult your doctor immediately.
thanks
