How Can An Infected Rash On The Knees Be Treated?

I fell on my bike and got a pretty bad road rash on my knee. I cleaned it out with hot water 5 hours later. then 5 days later i put hydrogen peroxide on the scab. The sab was turnng green and yellow and very tendor. This morning i had a shower, then put a bandade on the cut. When i took the bandade off, the scab came with it. Now its all red and a little bit of green scab in the middle. There is this green juice that is slowly using out of it. Should i see a doctor?

Your wound is infected I think. And it could be pseudomonas infection. Yes u need to see a doctor in person. Clean ur wound thoroughly, first remove the green slough completely and wash with hydrogen peroxide and betadine and wrap it up with clean gauze everyday.
