I had a tummy tuck with muscle repair in jan 2012.
Two and a half weeks later i had my first uti. I was
treated with cipro for 10 days. Five days later my
belly button began draining serous fluid. The belly
button also had a black stich exposed that we cut to
the skin. Two days later i developed a low grade
temp 37.4-37.8. I was started on cephlex for 5 days.
During this time i continued to have a low grade
temp. 1 day after the antibiotic was finished i
developed chills and umbilical pain. I went to er
and was started on clindamycin. I feel somewhat
better now but continue with the low grade temp
constantly and still have serous drainage. Any
suggestions on what is happening and what other
treatment i may need...... |
