You need to consult any consultant orthopaedician or consultant physician immediately. You need to collect that white fluid in sterile container and check for culture sensitivity test, AFB stain, ZN stain. It might be a cold abscess due to TB Infection. It may also be any bacterial infection. This kind of wound need to be physically examined instead of online consultation.
