10 Days Post Op And Leaking Incision

Well I didnt think I did "too much" today but now I have clear liquid coming out of the biggest one of my incisions with a smidge of blood it has subsided but had me worried its a little tender there still. There is no puss oooze or foul smell so I dunno if its a big deal left doctors office a msg talked to a nurse who said monitor it till tomorrow but it has me worried.

  • Same thing happened to my friend. Our doctor told her it is basically a tiny pocket behind the incision area. Hers drained for about a week, then totally cleared up. I had surgery the same day, howeve

I would not be too worried. you did the right thing by calling your provider and got advice from the nurse.

Clear, non foul odor probably can wait until tomrrow. I would call again in the morning and just go in so you don't worry.

How long has it been since your surgery? Did you feel any pain or anything before it started oozing??

there is a small maybe sharp pain there but not really anything prior to the leakage
