cmbd 17 Posted March 6, 2013 Two of my incisions got red and infected looking a few weeks after my surgery. I tried putting antibiotic appointment on them, but one got worse. I ended up going to the doctor for oral antibiotics. It cleared up right away! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
