What is this medical condition?!


Question: What is this medical condition?
My dad has this thing on his hand it looks like a huge zit and it's all green and yellow looking and he says it's really sore all the way up to his elbow. What could it be?

Answers:

It is an infection. It could turn into gangrene. He needs to see a doctor asap or he could lose his arm, or get a blood infection from it, which could be even worse. It needs to be drained and he needs to be on strong antibiotics NOW.

Sounds like a serious infection.
It's a trip to the doctor, .... and fast.
