Hi welcome to HCM
If the wound is not closed and there is running purulent secretions, probably it is infected.
Visit your surgeon as early as possible and get a culture and sensitivity of the wound done. Ask for appropriate antibiotics as per local data.
Contact us if you still have problems.
All the best.
