[******** 397]

Is this normal? I'm 4 days post op and noticed some yellow skin below one of the incision sites.

The whitish stuff is just glue

Looks good, healing very well. I had bruising around my incisions and it took them a few days before they appeared and it took a couple weeks for them to disappear.

So the yellowing is just bruising? Lol I'm dumb

Yeah I would agree it looks like bruising to me too....I am sure everything is fine. be concerned it you sell and turn red and have fever in it.

Is it bruising? Bruising can be yellowish in color.

Still, my observation does not and should not take the place of your doctor or any medical professional.

It looks fine. My bruising looks purple, yellow, green and black! Lol!

looks like bruising to me - and since you have the glued incisions, sometimes the iodine they clean you with during surgery is stuck under it as well. As long as it's not red or draining pus, you're good.

Looks like normal healing to me! Abnormal would be red, warm/hot to the touch, discharge, pus or a foul odor.

I had glue and bruises and it looked just like that.... It looks good to me.

Just from the picture you posted I think the incision looks good. Granted, I am not an expert but to me it definitely doesn't look like something that would warrant an immediate visit to the ER! If you are worried, it never hurts to pop into your surgeon or PCP office and have someone take a look. Recently I was sick - it made me feel so much better to go in and have my dr tell me I wasn't going to die (ok, I was nowhere near dying - I had strep throat). Sometimes we just need a little reassurance -
