What is the best medicine for pseudomonas bacteria found on wound after operation of hernia ?
You need to be taking an oral antibiotic for this...and it probably wouldn't hurt to use an antibiotic powder when dressing the wound.


Nystatin powder is an example of a topical antibiotic...it is used often for wounds like this...


A culture and sensitivity test would be the best thing to show which antibiotics you need...


You should definetely call the surgeon that did your operation and ask to be seen...


You need to treat this condition with medicine because it could get through to the rest of your organs and get into your blood stream...then it would be septicemia...and you don't want that....


Good luck and I hope you feel better.

All organisms don't get controlled by all medicines. There will be individual variations, and also it depends upon the site of infection and also on locality.


So the best thing you can do is to get the "Culture and sensitivity" test done on the pus / discharge . Let the "Microbiology department" tell you what "organism" it is and what "drug" the organism will respond to ! okay ?


Different medicines have different mode of action and hence you will have to check that detail from your consultant !





best wishes for a speedy recovery !

Reply:The question for your doctor is, is the pseudomonas on the wound causing an infection or is it colonizing the wound?





Infections from pseudomonas can be bad - there are only a handful of oral medications that can kill it and if the pseudomonas learned to be resistant to them then all you're left with is IV antibiotics.





Colonization, however, occurs when the bacteria is living on the surface but is not penetrating the wound. This is analogous to the bacteria that live on our skin without causing illness. If this is the case, the wound needs to be carefully watched to make sure infection isn't setting in but antibiotics may not necessarily be needed.





Changes in diet won't help with psuedomonas infection.





If you got a culture result back that says pseuodomonas, you need to talk with your doctor and see what s/he thinks it means ASAP.
