Hi, my history is complex but I will sum it up. Perforated bowel April 2022, surgery wound never closed. Been on over 9 courses of anti biotics and my hospital are useless (I am taking legal action)
I go to my doctors they send me there. Got put on yet another course on Thursday, and it looks like this today. I am unwell; in pain and maybe I'm Being dramatic. But this just doesn't look healthy to me?

I think you need to contact PALS - you need this to be given proper consideration as it isn’t healing. You need a referral to another hospital.

That wound is infected and needs regular cleansing and debriding. Ask for a referral to a tissue viability nurse
