Weeping skin lesions after an operation

Post by taltee »

Hi,my daughter is 14 years old and has a right erbs palsy.Recently she had an operation on her erbs hand,and 4 days later she felt her skin on her face burning,and weeping leisions started to apper.This has now been happening for 8 weeks with no signs of stopping and have spread all over her body.This also happened 4 years ago after a small op but stopped after a few weeks.Has this happened to anyone else out there as she feels so alone as no one seems to know what it is

i dont think a nerve problem would have caused the skin reaction. maybe she has an allergy to something they used in the surgery?
