<s>[INST] Hello doctor. My mom is 54 years old.3 months back she had a left abdominal pain and a small swollen mass. Doctors scannrd and said its an abscess. The pus was drained and dressing advised every alternate days. The wound healed but slowly there was another mass next to the early. Doctors again drained it. We consulted another hospital where they planned to scrubb and clean it again and stitched the wound however even after 2 weeks the watery discharge continued. They started with hydrogel dressing with silver colloidal. Everything now little watery discharge is seen. What could be the issue. All culture reports are normal no organisms identified. Her bowels are normal no pain only this watery discharge [/INST] Hi! Good morning. I am Chat Doctor answering your query. If I were her doctor, I would monitor her blood sugar, and also investigate further to rule out any chances of this being due to chronic infections like a tuberculosis, if it is found in the part of the continent where she lives. Usually an abscess is allowed to heal by secondary intention without any sutures excepting for some exceptional circumstances possibly with a Chat Doctor. I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts. Thanks for choosing Chat Doctor to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Chat Doctor. </s>
