Asked By:DeNovoMe in Las Vegas, NV

I had a BA/TT on 1/10/18. My pain pump in my LT groin was leaking since POD1, and the dressing was loosened. POD5 my pain pump was removed, and a red rash was noted at the site. POD6 the rash spread down my thigh, buttocks and RT thigh. I was placed on Doxy. POD7 the rash is worse and dark areas of purple discoloration are noted. No fever, or pain, it is not warm. I am seeing my PS later today, but wanted additional opinions. Could this be Necrotizing?? No other meds since POD4.
