A member asked:
I recently had my big toenail removed one week ago. i wash it, put neosporin, gauze, & bandaid on it. i noticed some yellow/drainage on the bandaid when i switched it out tonight. is that okay?

It is common to have a little yellowish or even bloody drainage. You are taking good care of your foot; washing it gently and keeping soil out of it are key. If it is red, painful or tender, please return to your podiatrist to check for infection.
