[|Human|] My son was diagnosed with a staph infection on his elbow Friday by our family doctor and was giving a antibiotic to treat it. Today he showed me where he had two little holes on his elbow and said he pulled white stuff out of it. I m assuming it was puss. Is this normal or should I perhaps take him back and let the doctor look at him again? My main concern is because he will be going out of the country next weekend on a mission trip for a week.
[|AI|]  HI, thanks for using Chat Doctor Infection would cause swelling, redness, increased warmth, tenderness and pain as well. If you notice these indicators then it is possible that there is an infection present, and he needs to be reassessed. If none of these is present then it is not likely that the infection is worsening but if you are unsure, it may be best to take him prior to his trip hope this helps
