3 weeks after surgery I had to go have a seroma opened up and drained where they removed my port. It has been a week and so far it doesn't look as if it's healing at all. I have to remove old gauze and repack it daily so that it can heal from the inside out. Has anyone ever had to deal with one of these, and if so, how long did it take to finally heal?

I was just at my surgeons office on Friday about that possibility. A seroma is a collection of fluid that collects underneath the skin in the port area because basically it leaves an empty space. He said that my incision looked normal even though it was pink and warm. He told me that if it starts to drain clear fluid that to cover it with gauze. If the drainage was purulent, then to call right away but in the mean time to watch it. Wounds like that have to heal from the inside. Eat lots of protein so it will heal faster. Keep clean. Healing just depends on so many things. If you are immunocompromised , it may take a bit longer. Example Diabetes will cause slower wound healing, also medications etc... Sorry to hear that. Hopefully it will heal quick.for you!
