[|Human|] This question is for my girlfriend. She got through with a surgery onher buttocks for implants not long ago and it got infected and she had to have the implants removed. After about 4-5 weeks in the hospital she was removed because the infection was gone, but right now theyre worried that the infection might have returned and are waiting for the results on monday. My question is this, after having a surgery like that, is it really difficult to overcome an infection and how long does it usually take and do you have any suggestions on medications she should be taking? I ask this because she lives in Mexico City and Im in the US. Shes been going to one of the best hospitals in Mexico, but would there be a difference in quality and what are your recommendations??
[|AI|]  Hello there, I am Chat Doctor. I suggest you to ask whether the culture report has been done or not. As you have said it's a one of the best hospital, so they have surely done. If infection is sometimes persist we need to remove that implant that happen in this case. Now you go for culture report of any discharge from that wound and also go for blood culture by a reliable microbiology l;ab and by a qualified Microbiologist doctor. Once you have cultured and if any organism is derived you need to follow just sensitivity pattern under guidance of your physician. So, some organism need long term treatment for complete clearance. If it is not given for proper period they may come back and make you infected again and again. So just go for culture & follow a good physician advise. Hope I have given appropriate guidance to you. If you have any query you can consult me anytime. Give me star rating, helpful vote & thank you according to your satisfaction level. Thanking you.
