[|Human|] My 44 year old boyfriend has a bump on the back of his ankle at his Achilles that is full of puss and blood. He has severe swelling down into his ankle and it s very hot and sore to even touch. Am I dealing with MRSA? My 6 year old had it two weeks ago but the difference is his swelling and fever was right where his boil was David s is radiating further down and I am pretty worried about it
[|AI|]  Hello I have studied your case All your symptoms suggest systemic infection leading to swelling and enlarged lymph node. Enlarged lump needs proper evaluation, aspiration and excision. Most common reason for enlarged lump is usually infection, so we can start antibiotic regime and look for results. You may need to investigate in form of complete blood count, ESR, CRP, tuberculin test, and Fine needle aspiration cytology or open biopsy. There could be possibility of infection like Tuberculosis or acidosis. Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow-up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you good health. Take care.
