Title: Infection?
Post by Erinmom2 on Jul 29th, 2010 at 6:02pm
Malachi had his surgery with Dr. Scott a month ago. He has been doing great! Today when he woke up we noticed some puss at the very top of his incision on the right side. There was/is a very small scab still there otherwise the entire incision is healed. I contacted Dr. Scott and he thinks is a possible stitch abscess. I took Malachi to the pediatrician today to get him started on antibiotics she also suggested we take him to a local neurosurgeon just in case it needs to be drained. Has anyone else had experience with this?? THanks guys!

yes, my daughter had surgery in may of 2004 and we moved in july of 2004 out of state.  She also had a problem with one of her stitches and it took several months (about 4 or 5) to heal totally.  All is well with it now though.
