Yellow pus after circumcision

[Nelly19812022]

Is a small amount of yellow pus and blood around the stitches ok? It all looks good but when take bandage off small drops of yellow and blood. Day 10

I had this except quite abit of discharge with a foul smell - had to get antibiotics off doc for a week which helped clear it up so if yours smells then get antibiotic if no smell it’s likely ok - I’m no medical expert just talking from personal experience - also I had a 1cm area where stitches had popped early which prob caused my infection so not sure if you have same

I have the same problem. But I can't contact the doc yet and they're closed for 2 days. Should I wait 2 days, get an antibiotic myself, or go to the hospital? I'm just wondering if it's really serious or not, if not then I can wait 2 days, no problem.

You are probably fine to wait until Monday if it’s not overly bothering you

Alright, thank you for the quick response!

Mine is fine now. Didn’t take any antibiotics. It is only minor surgery and will heal on its own
