Dear Jawadur (Dr. Wadud),
Thank you for your comments (sorry for delayed reply).
Last X-ray (in Septebmer) didn't reveal osteomyelitis, but I plan to
repeat it now as now osteomyelitis is highly probable - maybe this
is the cause of excessive exudation. Although 5th metatersal was
resected in ray amputation, now patient seems to need repeated
surgery for resection of infected bone.
Many thanks again to you and all participants who commented this
case.
Oleg.
