A member asked:
I have a surgical incision from a bunionectomy that doesnt want to heal. i have no signs of infection but there is still some seeping. what do i do?

Watch! Watch! Watch!: A time frame on the number of post-operative days would not only be helpful but down right necessary to offer some encouragement. The wound wants to heal, and barring an infection should heal without incident. Some times the wound may weep or seep for various reasons , but the one that is most concerning is infection. Your surgeon should give you the necessary advice to deal with immediate care.
