Wound

Hello! I had a surgery on October and then one of my incision got infected with celulitis. They never closet the wound and wait for it to close from inside to out. Since yesterday I have been feeling a Burning/throbbing sensation on the back of my heel where the wound was on the last surgery (where I got celulitis). I have never felt this before.. just want to check if that is normal or if I should worry about it

Don’t know if it is normal or not but I’d contact your doctor or hospital and ask. Better act now and be safe than leave it and wish you’d done something sooner. You know your own body and if it doesn’t feel right to you, then that’s good enough to do something

I agree with Fruitandnutcase. Get someone, GP or hospital to look at that asap, don't leave it.

Definitely get it checked out as soon as possible. It looks very inflamed all round the area too.

Not what you're looking for?
