Infection after surgery?

I had surgery on my finger in February and I think it is infected. I have no energy and I have a headache.

You should be seen by someone.
Signs of symptoms of infection are increased pain, swelling, and redness around the incision. Systemic symptoms are fever, chills and decreased appetite. If you have any concerns go to your PMD or the ER to be evaluated.
Hi there. I'm sorry you're not feeling well. I'd need more information, however it is unlikely the surgery from February would cause you symptoms now. How does your finger look? What type of surgery did you undertake?
Visit urgent care or minute clinic. Consult Functional medicine.
