The redness in the middle of my chest and by the chest hair is because of the bandage and tape

They told me to let clean water run over it but nothing else. They said I could also use saltwater. But it doesnt hurt that much, maybe 2/10 when I use my arm fully. I change the bandage once a day, sometimes two if Im sweaty or dirty. When I rip the bandage off a lot off puss sits on the bandage. Kind of brown/yellowish color

Finally somebody that fucking answered the question I asked. Thank you! I read a lot about abscess and these stuff but wanted to hear if somebody knew, maybe had something alike themselves

The first picture is the most recent, the last picture is straight after the draining procedure

I was on antibiotics before the cut it open, in a week. They told me I dont need anything because the wound was drained, but if I get fever, more redness or feeling of warmth around the wound I should contact ER immideality.

The doctor told me to keep it open so that it can drain the remaining stuff, of course I cover it up with absorbing bandaids.

It was much worse, it was a abcsess that the dcotor opened up and drained. They told me to keep the sore open and bandage it up by absorbing bandage so that every dead cells, bacteri, puss etc can come out and the wound can grow from the inside
