I am 4 days post op...had my surgery on Wed the 11th. I am having problems with my drain. It keeps getting a stringy clot in the tube and I try to push it through and just have to work and work it...I'm only draining about 10ml now every 5 hours...don't know if that's bad or not. I know the less you drain the better...but this soon after? Any help would be appreciated...thank you.
