Boils on legs following mpfl reconstruct

2018-10-25 19:35:14
I had a mpfl reconstruction surgery in June. After I recovered sufficiently to do cycling for physiotherapy, I got a boil on my groin which healed but happened again. After that I stopped getting boils on groin but instead they started developing on my legs. In the last 3 weeks only, I have gotten 4 boils on my leg. I haven't got a high fever though. I have an appointment with my surgeon on Monday but I'm really worried right now. Please help.
