Two weeks later, we surgically removed a hematoma around the coronal incision area to dissolve ongoing swelling with fluctuance. |
Local wound dehiscence without fluctuance was developed 10 14 days after surgery in 11 of these cases. |
A sutured laceration on the occipital region of the patient's head was noted to be moderately tender, but without fluctuance or drainage. |
On physical exam, the patient was febrile and his left upper eyelid was markedly swollen with fluctuance and drainage. |
Fluctuance and local purulence at the nail margin may occur, and infection may extend beneath the nail margin to involve the nail bed. |
