Most likely ur: Symptoms are from ur local infection. U are worrying too much. U r already taking two antibiotics which will prevent sepsis. With sepsis, u will have higher temperature, feel weak etc. Follow up with ur dr for any concern. Go outside and have fun. Enjoy the fair weather and sunshine in phoenix at this time of the year before the scorching heat starts!
