Question

my mom had hip surgery recently and now she's developed a fungal infection there for the past two days - she also had head surgery before this, could that be related or making things worse? what should we do about the infection?

Fungal infection post-surgery needs antifungal treatment.Local care and hygiene are key.Head surgery may lower immunity.
