Could The Pus From The Wound On The Foot Be Due To Infection?
Hello, I cut the sole of my right foot on an underwater log while canoeing a couple weeks back and the soreness has become worse and it seems to still be leaking puss into my sock when during work. It s become very hard for me to walk on it without pain. Would this be infected or just sore from the wound?
Hi, It seems that you might behaving bacterial infection giving this problem. Go for one antibiotic medicine course for 5 days. Clean the wound with antiseptic lotion and go for regular dressing with antibiotic cream. Ok and take care.
