View allI had open fistula surgery two days ago but there's still pus and blood draining from the area nonstop is this normal or could there be a problem
It's understandable to be concerned about persistent drainage after fistula surgery. While some drainage, including pus and blood, is normal in the days following surgery, continuous, heavy, and nonstop drainage could indicate a potential problem, says a doctor. It's best to consult your surgeon for evaluation and guidance

I'm worried about an abscess I have that has turned black. Does that mean it's healing or getting worse? My doctor suggested waiting for 3 days, but I'm still concerned. Can you help me understand what's happening?
If an abscess turns black, it may indicate that the tissue is dying or undergoing necrosis, which could signal an infection is worsening. However, it could also mean the abscess is draining and healing. It's good that your doctor wants to monitor it for a few days to see how it progresses.
