My knee cap has had a warm bulge for months now. One night it was making me soo mad I cut a little hole in it and a lot of puss (thick and smelly) came out. Ive had knee surgery on that knee twice in the past. should I be worried about a blood infection at all? I know your thinking go to the doc, Ive just been so busy.....
Hi, yes you had infection. If it is pus then it must be from abscess formation over there. It may spread to the blood and joint space also. So you need to go to the doctor. Go for blood investigation and local part by radiological test. And if needed go for culture and sensitivity testing from that pus. And then take antibiotic treatment accordingly.
