Bruising?

I had my surgery on 2/20 and today I noticed that there is a bruise by each incision that was not there yesterday. Anyone else? Thoughts?

    I had my surgery on 2/23 and I saw bruising right away. But I bruise easily any how. I asked my surgeon if it was normal and he said its because they need to cut through fat& muscle to place the band and that bruising means you're healing. Good luck and a speedy recovery to u :)

    I had to have surgery in Nov to correct a problem, and I noticed that I had a bruise, too. But, they go away pretty quickly. You should be okay. My suregon said that he brusies easily,too!
