Warning: gross (no pic has been added). Almost 6 weeks post-op. One of my scabs came off last night when I removed my sock and I was worried about infection because the scab had green goo on it and the spot was goopy with white stuff in a crater. (No systemic signs of infection like fever or chills.) My husband wanted to go to ER but I called on call doc instead and he said start topical antibiotic and go see my surgeon this week. I have appt scheduled for this coming Tuesday.
