discharge in the eye - ltdn
Posted: Apr 23, 2012
Doctor dictated "Mother is wiping pusy discharge from his eyes every 10 minutes since he awoke this morning." The word in orange, I would normally change to "pus-like", as I don't think this is how "pus-e" discharge is spelled. I keep thinking it should be "pussy", but that's clearly not how you pronounce it....LOL...HELP!!!

Purulent - LindaOz
[ In Reply To ..]I'd just change it to "purulent".
