I don’t know about sepsis but the MRSA abcess I had went from 0 to nuclear in like 36 hours. I think I posted pictures in the nope thread awhile back.

Especially with a replacement. Dad had both his done and he said they lectured him pretty hard to get his ass in if they get hot or red because if you get an infection that’s where it is settling. FFS he has to take a round of antibiotics before he gets his teeth cleaned.

Bad business.
