General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,

It would be best to be reassessed. The pus and blood indicate an infection that requires the use of antibiotics.

The altered sensation can be due to neuropathy which is an abnormal function of the nerves. It can be temporary or permanent and there are a number of different possible causes.

If it continues, this should be reassessed as well. BLood tests and imaging would be necessary to determine the cause.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Michelle Gibson James, General & Family Physician
