Swelling got a bit worse

Hi

So I had surgery 5 weeks ago. Afterwards I HD a bad haematoma which made the wound reopen and bleed for a week. It's healed now but the swelling which had just come down has for the past week felt bigger and tighter. Has anyone else had this? Had 3 courses of antibiotics in the time too to prevent infection of haematoma and treat a small wound infection but no redness or heat just a bit more tenderness.

 

Thank you

Infection is nothing to mess around with. If you are just getting over one and have even the tiniest sign of replapse, I would ask to be seen.

Too many  anti-biotics    ?

Too much blood ''thinners''  ?

So EZ  for the medical profession to pump our bodies  full of this  dangerous if overused stuff..

I am fortuniate , these are no problem  for me , my defenses work  well ....and I DO tax them ..

Also , the best possible advice from the sparrow and TracyE.
