seems not infected.. redness can be part of healing process..Can avoid XenacSP as there is no pain or swelling..Has been maintaining Good control over blood sugar .. Keep it up..Take care of nutrition to speed up healing.. If you still want to know about infection status, you can get a CRP test..Fatigue and shivering can also be due to Low blood sugars or Sodium levels..please check that..
