Incision site bleeding

[Happy Stylist 86]

Ok I'm one post op and I just noticed one of my incisions is bleeding just a tiny little bit. It looked different from the rest. So I touched it with a tissue and there was a tiny bit of blood. Should I be concerned. I have a follow up this week on Thursday. I just didn't want to call the dr and be a worry wart.

Is it pure blood? They tend to leak a little but it is clear, but the bandage will have dry blood and the mixture of the clear liquid and the dry blood will make it look a little pink.

I do not have bandages or strips over my incisions. They used that glue that's all. It is just blood and I do mean just a tiny bit.

It is probably fine if just a drop or 2, especially if you are headed for a check up in 2 days.

There is always 1 or 2 incisions that they move around the most in and take longer to heal, bruise up etc. That is probably one of them.

Just my opinion based on my experience, I am not a DR or nurse!

Ok thank. I was thinking the same thing. But I want to ask here first.
