Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have had a burst appendix/torn colon operation about four years ago and developed an infection. About three years ago I had a hernia operation in the burst appendix spot and that also developed an infection. Just one week ago I developed a cottage cheese looking infection in this site again. It is red and one of the cysts has broken open and is weeping. There is moderate pain with this.Jean
