Hi there. I have a history of mycobacterium marinum in the soft tissue of my right hip. I had to have 3 surgeries to remove the infection and IV abx therapy. Three days ago I noticed a red spot on my hip above my scar from the surgeries. The spot has gotten bigger and a darker red. I had a temp of 99.9 last night, and today I am getting sharp pains in the area of the red spot. Aslo the spot is hot and tender to touch. Not sure if I should let it run it's course or go into my infectious disease specialist.
