drainage from incision line

[Guest guest]

Hi Group,

My surgery was done 10/6/10 and my recovery was pretty uneventful until last

Saturday. I got an antibiotic for a sinus infection and by evening of that day

part of my incision that still had a scab on it starting draining pretty badly

ever time I moved my knee.

I call the doc on Monday and was told to watch it. Called back on Wed and went

in for a culture. The doc called back today to say the culture was negative. I

told him it was still draining a little.

I am scheduled to see the doc that did the surgery on Monday because the doc

that did the culture was his partner.

Meanwhile the PT people done want to stress the incision so I canceled my

appointment for next week hoping to get all this resolved.
