Well charges can be added now on the basis of second medical report but you have to contest it during framing of charges by the trial court or else you will have to contest in the trial that pus was formed due to the negligence of the victims and not due to the injury inflicted by accused

Yes...even if the FIR is saying section 323 if the police official (IO) is of the view that the victim had sustained grievous hurt then he/she can always write it down in the chargesheet and add more or even modify the sections. For more legal assistance I am just a call away.

Seek a detailed legal consultation from an Advocate and get the contents of FIR and MLC legally perused. Sections imposed under the FIR can be changed by the investigating officer provided he has sufficient incriminating evidence with him. Do engage a good lawyer and get yourself properly represented
