I have some rather large SCC skin mets on my skin aswel as inside my neck well the ones on my skin leak a horrible smelly fluid, my consultant knows but it seems to be getting worse and coming from my old trac scar which is very swollen! Sorry for maybe too much info just wondering if anyone else has experienced this? I’m seeing my oncologist Monday to hopefully work out a treatment plan, can’t bloody wait
Hi Sophiemarie
Best of luck for Monday, hope they can sort out the issue with the leaking for you. Maybe it is an infection that requires antibiotics. I have not had a similar issue although I did have a tracheotomy while in hospital.
Hope you can get this sorted out quickly as it must be quite distressing.
Best wishes
Lyn
