9 yr matured have oozing hole within leg...?


My son woke up two days ago and had a painless bump on the right side of his knees. Yesterday he was at the movies and it started to ooze so the military camp people put a band-aid on it. He did not update me about this until I saw the band-aid be soaked and leaking on him this morning.

I took him up on the counter and pressed on the spot and it POURED puss and blood mixed together. There be most likely a tablespoon at the tiniest that came out of this little hole.

I call the Dr. and got him surrounded by there first item today and got him on anti-biotics. He is to hold on to draining it and keep it verbs, no swimming and we can’t let it scab over until it stops pussing.

The hole is a pin sized hole, the wound around it is round and missing skin- around the size of a green pea, the skin is purple around that, and the purpleness is about 2 cm across. The Dr. is stumped. . It wasn’t a cut, it never hurt him, and never itched.

Answers:
I'm sure the MD is as stumped as you - and despite the reality he didn't remember falling or nicking it or a bug biting it something got surrounded by to his "skin" and he has an infection.
Perhaps the swab try-out result will tell for a time more of a story.
He could have gotten a spider bite (does he play outside, ramble? or even at your house) seems bizarre but happen.
The best part is you get to the MD and have a treatment -
if things worsen phone up them and ask questions.
Head to Web MD - to mitigate some of your worries.
WHY didn't you ask the doctor when you saw him this morning?

You'll have to bid that office and ask to speak beside the doctor he saw.
try going to another doctor and get a second belief. that sounds very strange.
It sounds JUSTTTT close to a bite from a brown recluse spider. Where do you live? Look closely at the cut and see if you see two little holes. A bite from a brown solitary person is more venemous than a rattlesnake, and you don't feel the bite until hours after until it's swelled up. Just hang on to it clean! Do NOT permit it get infected. If it get's infected he may lose module of his leg. NO JOKE!
Jeez.uh maybe a bug bite that get infected? some kind of sting or infection cause by something he came contained by contact with? did you know those little furry caterpillars will bring an infection?! ask him about that or if he have a spider on him I have no view but it doesn't sound devout...I hope he feels better and its nought serious!!
This sounds a lot approaching a spider bite. I was bitten by a brown outsider and this is what happened: exactly what you're describing. If they don't obtain this under control soon, your son could lose a appendage.

But, then again, I'm not a doctor.
