Rupture of fistula into vagina

[torcatokc]

I have been in and out of surgeries since May for a perinatal fistula. It has been something new every month and I doubt my doctor's competence.

My most recent pocket of infection appears on my labia next to my vagina. It just popped. A lot of puss came out and some blood but I'm worried because I cannot see where it popped but it is all coming out my vagina. I'm arguing about being taken to the hospital (I want to go my mother wants me to wait) I'm worried that the infection sitting in my vagina all night will cause great harm to it. Can anyone help me

I would say go to the ER.

That's what I'm arguing for but I think I'm going to wind up having to take myself

I agree with getting it checked out - if you didn't go last night I'd be going to urgent care/ER if you can't get in to see a doctor today.

I'm into the er waiting room now. My doctor was supposed to drain it last week during surgery and failed to do so she instead put a seton in a previous problem area. When I went back to her yesterday because it go worse she asked if it was bothering me last week and I said yes that's why I came in and I thought that's why you rushed me into surgery, then she said oh I probbed it to drain it. But i don't know. I have had nothing but issues from that doctor it's been 7months and I had 5surgeries. And two of which were her fault in messing up but had me pay for the surgeries to fix it. I went to a different district toget another opinion. Thank you all

Have you considered another doctor?

I have been looking up other doctors out of the Atlantic care sector but then this happened before I could schedule an apt. Because I'm pretty sure I have a case for malpractice and insurance fraud from the doctor because after the first seton fell out she said she must of done it too loose or too tight n then I had to pay for the replacement. The seton was only in for ten days it's supposed to be months to a year.
