Strange new bone growth after surgey

[Guest guest]

Hello

My wife had lower sugery done at the end of last feburary. The recovery is

progressing

nicely except for one thing. There is some new bone (sequestrum?) growing from

one of

the incision points (developed into granulation tissue?). This new bone is very

small and

has grow twice and has been removed.

The doctor says, new bone growth is normal and that the body is rejecting the

bone. This

new bone growth is causing some pain, and has caused some puss. The doctor has

given

her antibiotics.

We have done some research and came up with 'sequestrum mandible ostemyelitis' ?

Has anyone every heard of this ?

thanks
