3.5 wks post loa & debridement rt knee. now 8-10 red spots scattered on old acl incision/under knee area & addition 2 regular redness&swelling. ideas?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Spots on ACL scar: I would contact your surgeon and have him evaluate your incision. It may very well be "normal" healing but he should evaluate for any possible occult infection that may require antibiotics and/or further work up.
