What Is A Clear Yellow Discharge Coming From A Small Hole In The Leg?
My mother s leg is swollen, it was red and warm at times, so she went to the doctor and was told it was infected. They gave her an antibiotic but now there is clear yellow discharge coming from a small hole in her leg. What is this and why is it happening?

Hi,
it seems that there might be infection and producing wound with yellow exudate.
continue with antibiotic medicines.
Clean the area with antiseptic lotion and do dressing with antibiotic cream.
Rule out diabetes and Diabetic foot.
Ok and take care.
