leaky port?

Last night it leaked so much, it was all over my sheets, I know that's gross! But I need to know is this normal? It's got a red ring around only part of the incision. Also, did anyone's stomach poke out around the port site?:rolleyes2:

I know that my port site leaked some before finally healing all the way. The part of the incision that leaked was the last place to heal. I wouldn't freak out yet but I would put in a call to your doc. I had stapled incisions and they became red and angry about 4 weeks later because my skin was pulling, trying to heal. To be safe, call doc office. Good luck..

I called the dr's office and they wanted to see me. It was nothing, thank goodness! He said a lot of the time, the incision leaks like that and said it wasn't infected, but he gave me an antibiotic just to be sure. He also said the swelling around the port area is normal too. Thanks for the replies!
