Infection maybe>?

so its been almost a week since my PM was inserted, It was closed with surgical glue but on the end i can see a little yellowish greenish stuff forming under it and was wondering if anyone had pics of what it would look like infected or if i could send a pic and see if any of you think it may be infected my nurse said it might be moisture under the glue but theyd have to see at my appt on friday also when i get checked for the weird feelings and pressure ive had on my chest and neck area, any incite helps, please and thank you!

If it were me, I would want an immediate answer from my doctor. Are you running fever or see any red streaks coming from the incision site? If infected, you do not want to let it progress, especially involving the heart. Will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Hopeful Heart
