[|Human|] Hello,    My husband had a golfball size cyst removed from the web between his thumb and forefinger 2 weeks ago.  They chose to leave  it open to heal with drainage gauze in, to be removed an inch a day. This partially healed 1/4" hole is still draining pus. It has gone from yellow to white. Is this normal?
[|AI|]  Thanks for contacting ChatDoctorI understand that your husband had a cyst removed, and they left it open with a gauze packing into the area. It has been healing and now only 1/4" with white discharge. This is the normal healing process and the white discharge is normal. I can reassure you that all is going as planned and both of you have nothing to worry about Hope I answered your question. Please contact us again with your medical concerns
