Had lap band surgery Friday afternoon just called my doctor I have discoloration and swelling around one of my incisions he assured me its fine buy I'm extremely concerned... Is this normal? I know where they put the port is a larger incision but I would really like some advice.

Is it hot to the touch?

Any drainage? Is it itchy? A little pink is not to bad but when I had mine done I was told itching meant if was healing....Ive had other surgies before and knew that itching was part of healing but when I told the.nurse the itch was unbearable and my site was fire engine Red she asked me to come in, it turns out it was a topical skin yeast infection a complication from the antibiotics I had gotten in the hospital. When in doubt get it checked out!
