    I don't know what your so-called infection is now 20 days after surgery, you have a fever? Painful wounds? Pus from the wound? Or what other symptoms?

    In general, small local infections rarely cause abnormalities in the complete blood count, such as an increase or decrease in white blood cells, and changes in the number and proportion of lymphocytes and neutrophils. Abnormalities in the complete blood count may occur only if the infection worsens and causes a series of systemic reactions.

    Judgment on whether it is infected or not:

    1.Whether the wound is red, swollen, locally hot, painful or even pus.

    2.Presence or absence of systemic reactions such as fever and chills (although other conditions that cause fever such as cold and fever need to be excluded).

    3.Bacterial cultures can also be done if there is purulent discharge from local wounds. Blood may also be drawn for bacterial culture before fever and chills.

    4.The blood routine is a reference auxiliary test!

    Routine blood tests are only an auxiliary examination method for clinicians, and it is not the only criterion for judging infection, which should be judged in combination with other conditions.

    Local symptoms such as redness, swelling, heat, pain, and dysfunction are typical symptoms of suppuration**.

    Systemic symptoms such as fever, headache, malaise, fatigue, and loss of appetite are common in more severe cases.

    Superficial abscesses may fluctuate, deep abscesses may fluctuate, but their surface tissues are often edematous and locally tender, and puncture can confirm the diagnosis and identify the causative organism.

    Generally, the first three days are painful, and after three days, mild pain is tolerable. There is no pain at all and much needs to be healed afterward. If the pain is still noticeable after three days, inflammation is more likely.

One is to check the wound for infection; Second, you can test the blood routine to determine whether there is a possibility of inflammation.

    The black crust is formed by blood clotting, and if it is infected, there will be obvious redness, swelling, heat and pain in the surgical incision, poor healing of the surgical incision, abnormal discharge, and even general fever in severe cases.

    Why do you need to transplant prosthetic bones? It is a fractured bone

    Crushing the defects? Can't you use autologous bones such as iliac bone grafting? If you go to the orthopedic department of the DAO Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, you may not be infected.

    It is unlikely that the decision will be finalized if you discuss a reduction in the cost of medicine or ask for a medical malpractice evaluation. Or remove the fake bone and replace it with your own iliac bone graft and ask the hospital to reduce or waive the cost of the operation? Or you need to undergo a thorough debridement surgery to heal, observe for another month, or go home to recuperate to reduce costs, improve nutrition and sleep quality.
