Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have severe rug burns on both of my knees. They are very painful and almost two full days old. I'm not sure if they are oozing puss or if the scab keeps opening every time I sit/stand/bend my knees - basically whenever the skin stretches or condenses. Parts of the scab are a honey yellow color and fluid coming out is as well. I am curious because I've had impetigo before and the wounds looked the same but smaller and not on my knees. I was also told 6 years ago that I am a carrier for staph after I was diagnosed with MSSA
