I just got out the shower using.dial gold antibacterial soap since my surgery and for the second time my incision is leaking a little the last time I squeezed around the incinsion site and clear liquid and light red discharged from the incinsion site.the site is 1 of the 2 biggest incision I have I'm not sure if this is where my stomach was taken out are where the hital hernia was repaired my 1st doctors appointment is tomorrow since surgery ( may 17) and I will ask them. Hoping I'm not infected are anything bad I'll be back with an update. I also feel like I layer on my side to long and now I feel like I pulled something in the same area where the Fluid is leaking from the leaking started before I layed on my side

I have having the same issue. My incinsion was leaking a red Water and I get a clear puss. That rubs on my shirt. Dr said long as it's not warm to touch and ur not feverish all is ok. It's just taking forever to heal. I'm 3 weeks in.

First and foremost, stop squeezing it. You are most likely reopening any healing that is being done. I'm sure it's fine.

don't squeeze, don't pick don't do any of that stuff. leave it alone and let it heal. once the glue and junk is gone off it you can rub coconut oil or olive oil onto the healing scabs to help them, feels lovely and actually will make the scars better. but you still shouldn't pick or scratch because at some point they will itch.

Definitely show it to your doctor tomorrow. But typically if the fluid is clear, you are ok and likely not infection. But like LipstickLady said - stop messing with it!
