What Causes Greenish Yellow Discharge From The Incision Site Of Hysterectomy?

Hi, I had a laparoscopic hysterectomy ten days ago and the incision on my belly is red around the scab. Also, when I removed the band aid, part of the scab lifted and it was a greenish yellow color underneath. is this infeceted, if so can I wait a day to call my doctor? I seem to be calling the office every day for a fever, bladder infection, etc.,and it s getting old.

HI
Well come to HCM
Chances of septic wound is very likely and in my opinion this need to be managed with the antibiotic and the best drug for this would be Tab Amoxicillin with Clavulanic acid, twice in day if the condition does not improved then this need to be examined clinically, take care.
