My husband had his Apendix out One year ago. everytime he gets a bug bit or a (what looks like a pimple) it gets infected and a big puss core the size of a pea pops out. His leg was so infected the weekend they gave him 3 days of intervenus antibiotic. his leg is still hot to the touch. What should we do?
HI, thanks for using Chat Doctor The fact that the limb is still warm implies that the infection is still present. He needs to continue the course of antibiotics given. If he notices that the symptoms do not show continued gradual improvement over the next 24 to 36 hours, or worsen then he should consider contacting his doctor for a reassessment. I hope this helps
