A member asked:
I have a sore (oozing slightly) on an old surgical scar that began as a blister. it has been over a month and hasn't healed. should i be concerned?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Non healing sore: Since it is a month would have it checked out and is an infection risk. May be a fistula. Follow up with doctor/ surgeon.
