General & Family Physician 's  Response
Dr. Hanif warmly welcomes you!

Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and can well realize your health worries. Being your physician, I want to assure, I will take care all of your medical concerns.


It is not safe and normal for you to keep going with it as such. If I was your treating physician I would have recommended for you to take antibiotic Ticarcillin and Clavulanate to get rid of infection. Take Ibuprofen for pain inflammation and bodyache. Keep a good hygiene and wound care is the key to heal it up.

If you feel that the medicine is no more working for you, consult a general surgeon to see any foreign body in the wound, or to surgically remove the pus and debride (clean ) the wound.

Hope I answered all of your questions. In future, if you need further, detailed and quick assistance on any health issue, feel free to ask me a question by writing my name as a reference in the start of your question. I will get back to you right away. Have a wonderful time ahead.


Regards!
