It could be any number of things causing the weeping. Healing is always compromised in radiation patients. Did your husband do the hyperbaric oxygen treatments (HBO) when he had the osteoradionecrosis? That will help with healing and to reduce the chance of further complications.

I would see his ENT to further check for issues. Something is causing the problems so they need to test until they find what is behind it.

Best wishes!
