Pus filled sac on incision site 5 weeks after surgery - help please! (Photo)

Asked By:tshkn33 in Little York, IN

Had a BA 5 weeks ago - found this tonight. Started using the silicone strips because I was told everything was healing nicely a week ago. Called the PS on call and he started me on a round of antibiotics until I can see the doctor on Tuesday. Any ideas? I've had a lot of pain on this side recently but no fever or chills. There is bulge around the incision site that was previously closed. Any thoughts?
