Is something wrong with my insides? They keep showing up..first it was one...I thought it was the surgery and apart of the healing process but now...I have 3 bruise/ green colored markings. About the size of a quarter each...what can it be?

When was your surgery? If it was in the last three weeks, it probably is a result of that. The green color means it's an old bruise. I didn't have bruises there, but I was really surprised that I stayed bruised from the IVs for almost a month. If you had blood thinners (and you probably did) right after surgery, this exacerbates the bruising a little. You could always ask your surgeon, he/she knows what went on there....

My surgery was two weeks ago. I just keep seeing them pop up...if anything, shouldn't they be going away? Im hoping that im not leaking or anything.

Hey honey i had my surgery on 3/11/13,and i was told from all the morphine,and heavy anesthesia then it might cause the bruising.But heres a tip go to your local drug store,or dollar store and get some "witch hazel" put some on a towel and lay it on the bruising and it will remove it..you will be fine love..good luck:-)

You ned to call your doctor and report that. It could be very serious.

Every abdominal surgery I've had, I had "late-breaking" bruises that just sort of appeared a week or two later. Often, as you describe, they were green and sometimes purplish with tinges of green. I was told this was pretty normal, and they were healing just fine.

Still, I'd probably call the Dr. for reassurance if it's causing you concern at all.
